520XI NEWBIE PLOW QUESTION

Recommended Posts

grinchsr

I just picked up a 520xi and would like to know how different the plow is from a 416 to a 5xi.  Is the axle mount the same and can it be modified to make it work with the 5xi lift points?  One more question - Does anyone have a pic of a complete 5xi plow assembly?

the frame of the plow for a 416 is much smaller as the 416 is about 65 long as the xi series is like 75 inches or more.

Does anyone know the best way to replace the rear attachment lift cable on a wheel horse b100? I know I have to raise part of the frame off of the transmission to open up the tunnel but I don't know the best way to go about doing it. Thanks in advance!

I knew the 5XI's were different but Toro changed everything.  Like I said this is my first exposure to the 5XI machines so I have a lot to learn.  JUST WHEN I THOUGHT I KNEW EVERYTHING :laughing-rofl:  :laughing-rofl:  :laughing-rofl:

Yep, I have a 5xi blade on my 520Lxi and have seen the older blades and they are much shorter. It might take a bit of fabrication to make it work.

You may already know this, but nothing swaps to the "xi" line, from previous lines. I am sure they can be fabricated, but it would take some serious fabrication work to do so. As stated above the "Attach - a - Matic" is completely different in size and width. Best just to find the "xi" attachments and pay what the are asking. Here is a bonus, if you find anything listed for the New Holland GT -18, 20, 22. < These attachments and parts are interchangeable and usually a little less expensive. But they are a different color. Just my :twocents-02cents:
