I assume your engine does not run. If it cranks, but does not start, you can crank it with the loader
joystick pulled back to raise the boom.
If not, then you need to jack up the boom, while pulling the joystick back. Then put a holder on the boom cylinders to keep it up. This holder can be as simple as a piece of angle-steel that you place on the exposed rod to keep it from retracting. It is pinched between the fat part of the cylinder and the end of the rod. Use the same size on both sides, and hold it to the rod with something to keep it from falling out during the boom-jacking. Don't use wood, or anything that could buckle.
Good Luck

Welcome to TBN
Why not just route tow chain/strap under bucket from tractor being towed to tow vehicle/winch then as soon a chain/strap is tightened with with loader valve pressure relieved bucket will be off the ground or tow stranded tractor from the rear dragging bucket.

Thanks for the ideas. I can jump the starter so I will try that first, then proceed. I believe I have a safety switch somewhere not allowing the starter to engage. Usually it is the seat but this time it is something else....

pull it on back wards, (one may have to operate the hydraulic handle, to relieve the cylinders to let the loader move up or down,)
one may be able to use a handy man jack (hi lift) to lift it and move the handle to relieve the oil in the cylinders and it may stay up, thenm

Just put the loader in float.

Hopefully it is something simple! Sometimes that happens to my Mahindra, and as someone else said it might be the pto switch or one of the many other "safety" switches. Some times my pto handle vibrates to a point that the switch in there activates or de activates and keeps the tractor from starting. Good Luck!

Yep, put the loader in float and pull it out of the field or up on the trailer backwards if you have to.
Hopefully, however, you can troubleshoot it in the field and get it started. Good luck. :thumbsup:
