Yeah you can pop it in high gear to start it... In fact that's what I've been doing lately with my Case 530 because the bendix drive is stuck and I don't have time to fix it, so I just park it on a hill in low gear. Then when I want to start it I put it in high gear, turn the key on, push the clutch in and after she gets rolling I let the clutch out and she fires up. Remember your in high gear, so push the clutch and brake back in as soon as it starts up.
To me it sounds like your problem is the solenoid, weak battery, or bad connection. You should also be able to start her using jumper cables... connect neg. to the frame and pos. directly to the starter, bypassing the solenoid switch... make sure the key is on your your plugs won't fire. I'm assuming your tractor is 12v neg. ground.
