b7100 3 point lift will not work what is wrong

hi ,your post is a little confusing,are you saying the lift arms won't lift or the power take off shaft won't turn when you put the lever an the left side into gear,
Has the problem just started or is the tractor new to you?
Dave
it will not lift. the pto shaft is fine. I just bought it though it has been sitting for awhile. any ideas on what is wrong
There should be a round knob located under your seat and sticking out toward the front of the tractor. That knob regulates how fast the 3PH drops. You can rotate that knob left and right to adjust how fast the lift drops. If that knob (valve) is all the way closed, the hitch won't move. Check it.
The reason I was confused by the first post was you mentioned "spin" which to my knowledge the tpl does not do.
The only knob I have seen under the seat of a B7100 operates the hydraulic divert valve to the FEL etc and may be turned away from the rear lift which could cause the relief valve to squeal when you operate the lift lever if don't have a FEL.The rate of drop is controlled by a bolt as shown in post 4 here:

You still do not say if you have ever had the lift working normally which would be of assistance to those offering help!

There is a drop rate valve under the seat. Some have a knob on them most just had a shaft with a pin driven through to turn. If that has been closed your 3pt will not go down. Check this for us so we can help with the diagnosis. You need to lift the seat to access it.
ok guys thanks for all the help but i fixed my problem today. All it need was some good ol weight forcing it down, i feel so stupid. do any of you guys know how much a whole 3 pt hitch system costs?
That's something, you think twice before you let others konw about it
My 3ph would have cost ~$140. But I got it in the package with the traktor.
