37" deck?

Recommended Posts

Will the 37" two blade deck fit under a 520 with the forward swept axle?

  Sure will. No front tire clearance issues under a regular 300 or 400 series so the deck should be even farther away from the front wheels on a swept axle machine.

  I would be more concerned about that 20hp Onan being able to spin that deck :ychain: !!

If your 300 or 400 series have the 8" front wheels there is a clearance issues.

I have a 37 inch deck on a 520-HC.  With the guage wheels set at lower cutting heights, the right guage wheel will rub the rear tire when the deck is raised to transport position. This can be aleviated by using a narrower guage wheel with a spacer or narrower rear tires.  This is the only issue with using the 37 inch deck on a 520 with a "swept" front axle.
