Hesston 130-90 PTO won't engage

I have a Hesston 130-90 tractor which I bought used in October 2004 (about 3600 hours). All the mechanical systems checked out OK at at the time of purchase. I have not used the tractor in the winter, only started it a few times to keep everything moving. A couple of weeks ago I started it and engaged the PTO lever. The PTO would not spin (and it always had before, although with an audible whirring sound). To make a long story short, I tried to remove a side access plate on the right rear area of the tractor and also the PTO filter. The filter was completely blocked up with crud (plant material, some shavings). I cleaned the filter, hoping that"ll solve the problem. No such luck. I then decided to run the tractor and engage the PTO with the filter off (to see if the hydraulic fluid would pump out). Nothing.

If anyone out there has any ideas / experience with this type of problem, I would appreciate any input. Thanks in advance.

Not familar with your particular model but; I have a 70/66 Heston that the PTO lever on the dash (not the one on side) will occassionaly stick like the cable has rusted or gummed up, a little WD40 or PB Blaster will free mine up. Like I said, I am not familar with your particular model so I don't know if this will help or even applies.

Thanks for your reply, Wayne. There does not appear to be anything wrong with the lever. There is a steel pin that goes into the side of the tractor (that plate I mentioned in the first post) that the PTO lever engages. The PTO runs with the pin all the way out (I am thinking some type of hydraulic valve). Like I said, even with the PTO filter off and the tractor running, no fluid comes out. I figure the valve isn't opening or is clogged. But that's just a guess.
