Weeeellllll, ordinarily if draft control sensing link coming up from bottom has slipped past, your hitch will not go way to the top and will not stay on demand, however hitch will not lower. So if it was indeed off and you got upper spring loaded lever back in behind it and hitch still went all the way up and linkage is still where it belongs, you have a stuck spool valve in the draft control lever itself. If manually operating it and getting it back down, try yanking position control lever back and for several times with out engine running, you may get lucky. Otherwise I would have some one experienced with this hitch take a peek at it before you tear things apart as it is a lot of work to get at the valve. The spool is not forced forward, it relies on spring in valve to return it to lowering position, linkage pulls it rearward to lift but spring must return it forward. You will notice lot of free play on the linkage going into the valve if it is indeed stuck. This was a real problem on early 706 and 806 tractors but never bothered much later on.
