Jeeze I wish ya hadn't done that. ;8^) Good part is that WD40 is more of a solvent than a lubricant. It penetrates pretty good, but I don't expect much of it got to the frictions surfaces of your clutch disc.
For a tractor that's been sittin' it's far more common for the faces of the clutch disc to stick to the face of the flywheel or the clutch cover rather than the shaft. To get that loose . . .
Try pulling something with your tractor. The tractor should be in gear and the clutch pedal should be depressed. The idea is that you want the whole mechanism to be in the "clutch released) position while you put enough load on it to break loose the bond holding the face of the disc.
The object you pull should not be a fixed object like a tree. You could break something trying that.
If you have something like a 3-point counterweight for a front bucket that can be dragged that can work. Another is to pull a regular road vehicle. As you pull with your clutch depressed, have a driver in the vehicle you're pulling apply their brakes to put a strain on, lock it up and drag them if that's what it takes.
Depending on what shape it was in the last time it worked properly, six months isn't all that long a time for it to have been setting. I have an idea it might break loose fairly easily.

As simple as a box plow appears, it can be rather challenging to make work correctly. In our sandy soils of Florida, traction is king. You can never have wide enough tires or heavy enough weights to get all the traction you want … unless you own a monster tractor. U
