If you're trying to operate the rockshaft with no weight, it will do nothing as the rockshaft has no down pressure. In order to make the square shafts turn, you will either need to hook it to the item you wish to use to provide the wieght necessary or hook a pipe wrench to the square shaft and pull clockwise down on them while running the lever. The square shafts should turn with a little weight on them.

This is not a factory setup. Someone removed the plugs and stuck these on. If you're taking out the dummy plugs and putting a set of powertrol fittings into the holes, the cylinder should have up and down pressure. The powertrol tips look like the dummy plugs but instead have female threads to put them on hoses to connect to the hydraulic cylinder.
