It must have had one. Usually stamped in many areas,check the frame ,under the hood and under the dash. If ITT was a recent purchase it may be stolen.

try putting preasure down on the hood before you use the release lever
that can help, also if it is out in the cold it is possible water got in there if thats the case it won't open unless it get above freezing to thaw out

Should have handles on side cover.

Remove bolts or clamp on top of spindle. Next remove steering tie
rod. It should slide out.

M88565
2. Pull defective fuse (A) out of socket.
3. Check metal clip in fuse window and discard fuse if clip
is broken.
4. Push new fuse into socket.
5. Lower hood.

you just remove the two screws on the side of the hood then lift the hood up

Below the bottom of the hood you will find two metal tabs,push down on either one to release the hood.You will have to release the grill guard pin and roll it forward before the hood will open all the way[if it has a loader on the tractor].Under the hood and to the left of the battery is the prop rod to hold it up.Hope this is helpful.
