I used my 135 massey bushhogging yesterday for about 3 hrs and everything worked fine. Then without any warning, then hydraulics stopped working. It appears that when I move the draft lever, there is no resistance. The hydraulics do not even attempt to move even when reving the engine.

Given your description, I'd say the vibration of the bush hog rattled a bolt loose and the lever is no longer doing anything but sliding back & forth, it's not moving the internal linkage.
Best of luck. ....

I took the right side cover off and the linkage does appear to be moving and engaging the internal mechanism, so it doesn't appear to be a linkage problem.
I also opened the left side cover at the PTO switch lever and checked the filter and it is clean. ....

Does your tractor have the add on remote hyd? If so are you sure you did not bump one of the levers out of where it should be diverting the oil flow away from the lift?
You are sure your oil level is okay also. ....

My tractor does have the remote hydraulic but the lever has been seized due to lack of use, so it did not get bumped... unless somehow it would have moved internally??? ....
