Two possibilities spring to mind:
either it's a fixed mount lens like my two Hanimex zooms, in which case it
sounds like the spring connecting the actuator to the iris lever has broken
or come off, or
it's a T2 (or similar) interchangeable mount that hasn't been fitted to the
lens properly - that is, the lever that stops the lens down is on the wrong
side of the mount's actuator arm.
