After finishing adding a rear view camera to my Kioti today I backed my tractor into a shed to drop my offset flail mower.  The PTO would not lower the mower(3 point hitch) to the ground.  My first thought was I did something during the camera installation that caused the problem.  I inspected the 3 pt hitch and mower for binding or any reason why it would not lower but could not find a problem.  After some thought I tried the knob that controls the lowering speed of the 3 pt and it allowed the mower to lower. I can't imagine how kicking this knob would cause it to turn enough to prevent the 3 point from lowering but that is the only thing I can think of that caused the problem.  In 40 years of using a tractor I have never experienced this before.
In any event the good news is that I do not have a problem and learned what to look for if my 3 pt hitch does not lower in the future. Thought this might help others who may have the same issue.
