I'm not real sure what is wrong here.
Put the tractor in a full right hand turn and shut off the engine. Have an assistant move the PTO full forward and full rearward while you check to see that the PTO rod is moving the outer arm from stop to stop. The lever should want to return rearward with the engine off.
If the outside linkage seems to be moving everything OK and you aren't familiar with this model, now would be a good time to stop and get a guy who has had factory training on this.
There is a chance the internal valve control linkage is bent or broken. If you are patient and have clean work habits and you have access to a repair manual, this might be something you can fix. You will need to remove the left fuel tank and remove the PTO and traction clutch control valve by working through the hole in the side frame. {not easy}
There is also a chance the PTO clutch is too damaged to transmit any power.... Even if it has never been used. This would be a job for the most experienced guy you can find. Even pretty good mechanics manage to do sub-standard work in this area.
