Hi,
It is a 600 series. You will need to bleed the hydraulic pump to get the lift back working.There is a plug on the pump loosen it and turn the engine until oil bubles out the plug. Be careful not to get it too loose as the pressure can blow it out and it can become a deadly weapon. If it is a gasoline model pull the coil wire out of the coil so it won't start. If it's a diesel then be sure the cutoff is pulled out. Have the lift control lever at the lowered position.
Good luck
