Hello, I need some help please, does anyone know if a 48'' mower deck part number 78360 off a 1997 520H will fit on a 1991 520H

 

Thank you

Welcome!

Download the Chart Implement Interchange .pdf File In the Implements Section. It tells what fits what from 1955 to 2000.

Not 100% sure, but it most likely fit since both are 520's.

@Tim Shimp  great time to  check out , verify , state of  condition , and  movable function . how easily does the  deck spindle assembly  move  /  spin ?  related , belt wear will attest to ,BEARING  HANG UP , typically lubrication  failure , break down .  a fuzzy  belt is telling you of  movement failure , also BELT BOUNCE , TELLS YOU THAT .  initial  hook up and  pto lever engagement  , should be  easy AND QUIET  ,  no screaming  start . good luck with it  , pete

Hello, I have another question. When I move the lever to lift the mower deck, it does not go down. Note that I do not have the deck attached when I'm doing this. My question is, does it need the weight of the mower deck for it to go down? sorry if this doesn't make sense.  Thank you.

Without an implement attached, there is not enough weight to move the piston in the hydraulic cylinder down quickly.

WHX??

It still should move tho as it's a double acting cylinder. Means it uses hydraulic pressure to move it up and down. 

You may have some air in the system. Check the transmission oil level. Having some weight on it may help bleed air. 

It may also be the transmission might need some warm up time. The charge pump... the part of the transmission that provides high pressure ... often needs to run for abit to get fluid moving. Especially in cold weather.

Down pressure from that lift is actually stronger than the up pressure because down is extending and lift is retracting.
