If you mean that you can't push the button down on your lift lever, try pulling it back (like you're lifting the blade) then push the release button down.

its like the button is frozen in place

If your tractor has sat outside its possible it is frozen. Try parking it inside a heated building for a little while. if you dont have access to the then try a propane torch or something. :thumbs:

Chevy unhook the plow from your lift handle and remove the hairpin cotter. Next remove the three bolts holding the handle to the tractor and remove it. When you flip it over you will see a spring that compresses when you push the button down. Make sure something isn't jammed up there. The best way to learn things is to just take it apart. Figure out how it works and then figure out why it don't work. Good luck...

Plus chevy, I'm a very poor speller to... A lot of times I go to google and type the word in I'm trying to spell and most times the right word pops up. This will help you figure words out. Plus my wifes a school teacher... :thumbs:

I had that problem. The lever was bent.

Last week, while plowing with a B-80, I noticed that my button seemed to be getting stiffer to push down.

A closer inspection revealed that the weld where the round part of the lever meets the square part of the lever was starting to break, allowing the lever to bend a little and binding up the rod through the middle.

I ended up switching levers out and putting the broken one on the "tuit" pile.
