Just under the seat there is a large hex head plug. 1 1/16 wrench fits it. Under this plug is a large but weak spring and a check valve. Remove this spring and valve,clean it and housing with a rag, re install make sure it works freely up and down. Then try lift again.

As for starting problem, this engine is equiped with a thermostarter. A glow plug check valve located on the intake manifold just below where the intake hose is connected. This unit is activated by turning the starter switch CCW for a few seconds. This needs to be kept in good working order. Another usual problem with starting this engine is cranking speed. It was intended for this tractor to have 2 large 6 volt batteries 1200 CCA combined and large battery cables, 1 gage or heavier to aid in getting cranking speed up.

I would try what geok said. Check the hydraulic oil strainer/ oil filter. I have seen some of these clogged with shavings from the manufacturing process. If the hydraulics still do not work, remove the four bolts and the main line from the hydraulic control valve. Slide the control valve head off the studs and remove all removable pieces and thouroghly wash all orifices. Slap on a new gasket, new o-rings and copper washers and replace. For parts you can find a local dealer by going to longagribusiness.com. The hard starting could be from a bad thermostarter or it could be as simple as a loose or cracked line. Hope this helps.

A Long 560 was my first tractor. Both problems you describe are common from the way they are typically maintained in North America as opposed to the way they were designed. The 560 uses a washable strainer for the hydraulic fluid. When I bought mine the strainer was completely clogged. We are used to replaceable filters, in the old eastern block clean and reuse was the norm as spare parts were scarce but the same fuel that went in the tank would clean the filter. I washed mine, flushed the case with kerosene twice, and refilled. Lift worked. Drained and changed. Engine is more problematic, it could be nothing more than a weak pump or fouled injector. In most cases it is worn rings (maybe pull an oil sample analysis). Engine depends on an oil bath air cleaner only with no paper element and no precleaner. Service interval is weekly, most of us are used to replaceable paper elements every 2 years or so. Once again they were desined to wash in fuel and refill with engine oil which if were unavailable the tractor wouldnt be running anyway. If I had to guess probably a candidate for a rebuild.
