Hi all. Just want to introduce myself. Been nosing around for a while. Couldn't remerber my log on. That ought to tell you somethink!!! My name is Didier, 50 summers and still ticking! Writting from Luxembourg. I have been playing with wheel horse/Toro for a while. Decided to buy a Toro 268H about 3 years ago as I was getting tired of walking behind the mower. Sold it a week ago. Bought a Toro 523Dxi about a year ago and restored it. Was abused by the person using it!!!! Replaced the engine (diesel) and am currently rebuilding the mower deck. New bearings, rollers, etc... Got the deck sand blasted and metalized (do you say that?). Added a coat of anti rust paint and sprayed it with 2K paint. Ready for reassembly now. Just waiting on some stainlees steel bolts to hold the spindles and baffles. Tractor works fine with the new engine. The all setup was around 500hrs when I bought but was looking more like 5000!!!!I am driving around to reach 50 hours so can have the oil and filter changed. Run-in time.

I tried to post pictures in the gallery but would not authorize. I am too dumb with computers!!! If someone could guide me thru it ????

Thanks for the help and hoping to be of help to others.

Ltr, Didier
