Need to Tow John Deere 8300
low

I have a John Deere 8300 that won't start due to the cold (like -15 F). I would like to tow it into a garage to warm up but I can't figure out how to release the brake (Or whatever is holding it). We put it into neutral and had someone with their foot on the clutch, but pulling backwards with a diesel pickup in 4x4 low, it won't budge. I've found there is some sort of transmission brake but I don't know how it works or how to release it. If it is not that then I don't know what it would be. Thanks.
