JackC 616 #6 Posted July 17, 2014 Nice Tractor. If the model number ends in E01 it is 88, E02 is 89. It has the single stick motion control on the floor that I like better than the motion control on the steering column. I also like the drive belt release that was deleted on the newer 520H tractors. It has 3/4 inch spindles rather than 1 inch and it does not have the swept front axle for the 60 inch decks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
