Bert 760 #1 Posted February 28, 2014 Hello, I've done a bit of reading on here and was amazed how helpful the members are I've also wanted a 520h but was unsure bout the hydro and newer tractors in general I found a clean one with 435 hours on it so I brought it home last week, the push was knowing I'd have help if needed so thanks guys 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vinylguy 4,666 #4 Posted February 28, 2014 Welcome to RedSquare Bert Sounds like you found a great 520. I was in the 520 club once but someone made me too good of an offer. What year is it? Here is your Badge Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bert 760 #5 Posted February 28, 2014 Thanks guys, I believe it's a 90 modle cause it's got toro decals but lacks the gear reduction in the stearing, it kinda needs it with the 60 inch deck but besides that it was to good to pass up I'm gunna try to get some pics up if I can get this figured out Kinda off topic but it makes my round hood look like a toy hehehe Oh I like the badge Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
