    Kind of the same response as putting the auto transmission in park while parked on an incline, then when backing up the parking pawls release with a bang.

    Considering a L5030 HSTC

    Attaching a rear blade (or any other implement) will not help that lever move. You push the lever down and the arm with the eye will be able to move a few inches out. You must pull that piece to get it to move. When it's pulled out enough to reach the desired implement you out the pin in. Do...

    Bathing all the rusted parts in the PB Blaster should free up enough to get moving then keep working the moving part.
