We need more info on what happened.
IF it's a gear drive my experience with my M4700 might be pertinent.

This has happened 2 or 3 times over 10 years, but only about 100 operating hours or less (it's approaching 1500 hrs).
On my M4700 it wouldn't shift from 3rd to 1st/2nd.
The first time(s)
I went underneath and traced the levers and found they were binding a bit.
Generous application of fluid film freed them up. And light tapping with a suitable tool.
The last time, a few months ago I found a twig had managed to wedge itself in the way.
So check out the lever path.

Twice I have had this issue - if your problem is the same it is an easy fix: The range shifter appeared to be in a correct place but the tractor would not move. The issue was that the range lever was not quite engaged, i.e., not in the slot. A tap or two with a small 2 x 2, or a long screwdriver to ease it into the slot, was all it took. You may have to remove the covering - I am not familiar with your tractor. Removing any cover may be a good idea anyway so you can see precisely what is happening.
