L2201DT tiller stuck up

[DaTow'd]

Hi Gang,
Our trusty L2201 DT's tiller is stuck in the up travel position and will not come down. The operating level feels like nothing hooked to it.
Any Idea what to check before I remove the top cover under the seat
'thanks
Hank

It seems like you think it's a lever linkage issue. But before you start investigating maybe a quick and easy check to make sure your 3pt drop speed lever isn't turned off.

does your tractor have a valve with a knob on it under the seat (between your knees).
If it does make sure its not closed tight. (open it / rotate knob)

This model doesn't have Monromatic three point does it?
Monromatic is electrically controlled three point.

Check the feedback linkage, should be a bar that goes from the three point arms to the valve linkage.

do not remove the top cover while there is a load on the 3 point. Remove the load first!

tractorcharts dot com says its got a position control 3-point.
