Won't go into gear.

My 72 Raider 8-10 was shifting harder and harder and now only finds reverse. I don't know much about these gear boxes. Not much about transmissions in general. Where do I start? Gear oil is fresh 80/90. Shifter? Forks? Anything  would be useful. Thanks

Does it go cleanly into all the gears with the engine off? If so, your problem most likely stems from the drive belt not being stopped with the clutch pedal fully depressed. 

Easy enough to see (at least on a C series) - while off the tractor, start it in neutral, depressing the clutch fully by hand. Look across the battery area to find the drive belt - it should be stopped.

If not, try adjusting the pedal back towards you for more throw. The belt guard MUST be installed, and correctly, for proper belt control. Most guards have tabs inside to aid in stopping the belt....
