Johnny: If the mower came new with the 230, it's very likely a C-28. The mowers that Hal and Wayne mention all had pull rod that attached to tractor front rockshaft, to lift cutter bar.
The C-28 was built with a pivot arm at hitch point. That pivot arm hooks under tractor hitch pull bar, and as hitch raises the pivot causes cutter bar to lift. C-28 was also built as a 3point hitch mower and incorperated the same type pivot. This all came about between 200 and 230 production when touch control was dropped and 230 switched to hydra touch with no more front rockshaft. Of course the design change was made to accomodate 3 point hitch as well.
230 can operate the older fast hitch mowers by using an external remote hydraulic cylinder, or if it is one of the 230s fitted with touch control. Touch control was an option with 230, and some have been changed since.
