Clevis hitch installation troubles on 520H

Recommended Posts

Dan Shannon

Purchased clevis hitch for  520H (thanks Dennis Turner!)

Am having issues installing conduit tube that guides the pulling cable to the lift arm.

The machine has hydraulic lift so the tube is bent.

Can't determine the positioning of the tube or the point of attachment of the clamp that holds the tube in place.

Schematics are "sketchy" so I am doing a lot of guessing.

Anybody know how to do it?

These pics help?

Note...the tube should be bent as in the schematic # 8.  The other tube #10) has a slight bend as is for std trans.

If anyone could provide a detailed drawing so I could build a bellcrank as in #5 in the drawing that would be great. Also the length and size of the cable #11 would be helpfull.

 

Thanks, Cleat

These are close but rockshaft measurements from a 520 would be great.

thanks, the pictures help greatly.

 

I have been playing around with that location of the tube but wasn't able to finalize it in my head.

I sort of realized that the flared end of the tube would be situated near where your picture shows it.

Thanks for the confirmation.

 

I have a question about the other end of the tube, where the cable travels on its way to the lifter arm.

does it line up with a hole in the plate that is between the transmission and the lifter arm (does the cable go through that hole) or is there another way?

Terry,

 

Wow, that is exactly what i needed to see.

Now I just have to get the grime and detritus out from under the transmission and slide that tube into place.

 

Thanks,

Dan

Ok - I've never had to tear the Wheelhorse down to that level to gear the clevis lift cable tube installed... ;) Edited by leeave96

Mission Accomplished!

 

Thanks to all who contributed. I really appreciate this website and all of the knowledgeable people here.

 

FYI: I didn't have to tear it down to get the tube in place. The pictures really just confirmed to me that I was working in the right place.

After clearing out all of the accumulated dirt and leaves I was able to get the tube in place and run the cable under the engine to the lift arm.

When you put in those two bolts holding the clamp, use some sealant on the threads since they go thru to the inside of the transmission.

      Now that we are finding more uses for the 1990 520H with a KwikWay loader I am experiencing some power loss in the hydro after about a half hour to 45 minutes??????
      Ideas?

      Selling my trusty WH520H.  ~880 hours (currently used for moving snow when needed so hours may rise) very solid machine, strong and hardworking.  20HP Onan, hydro transmission and hydraulic lift.  Has Matt's foot-pedal conversion for forward/reverse.  Included in the sale is a tall-chute snow blower and 60" mowing deck.  The blower is in excellent condition and is on the tractor currently.  The mowing deck has been a workhorse over the years.  No holes but could use some TLC, probably needs new spindles at some point and could use a couple spots touched up with welder also does NOT have any pulley covers/protectors (see photo).  Tractor has been an incredible tool, very solid and dependable and I'm certainly going to miss her when she's gone.   
       
      Recent maintenance: replaced the plugs this summer, fluids as needed (hydro has about 100 hours on fluid/filter; oil was done in the spring and has about 25 hours on it).  Battery is about 3 years old as are the tires, Terra Trac tires on the rear and turfs on the front.  The seat (with arm rests) isn't in great shape.  I've got a cover for the seat, never used.  It's never really bothered me but new seat cover is included in sale as are 4 hub caps, chains for the rear tires, and some misc spare parts (see photos).  
       
      I've owed this machine about 8 year and put ~350 hours on her.  She's not a show piece but could be restored.  Sheet metal is generally in shape, no rust however the hood does have a couple dings in it.  
       
      I'm only selling because I'm trying to help my son get a small lawn care business started and looking to move to a zero-turn.  The 60" deck is too large for our trailer, the mowing deck lacks pulley safety shields, and we'd like something that mows faster.  My only complaint with this machine is the top-speed (which isn't great when comparing to today's machines) otherwise she's a beast.  They don't make them like this anymore.
