stevebo-(Moderator) 8,040 #1 Posted August 19, 2018 So last night doing the same most of you do and crusing Craigslist and came across a one owner 520 xI with 550 hours. For the price I could not pass it up. WmIled the seller and said I will take it. Responded if you want it you need to be here at 9am and I said done. Really toght machjne and paint was never waxed but in great shape. Ended up biffing and spending some time cleaning it up. Changed deck blades with a new set I had in stock and mowed the lawn. Really tight machine and deck is quiet. Have to bypass one wire in fuse block that controls gauges. Fuse is frozen in there. This makes my 3rd xi I now own. 7 7 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ohiofarmer 3,157 #8 Posted August 19, 2018 There is a 400 series with the 17HP Kawasaki with a deck and front blade for 1600 at a dealer nearby. That should be a solid buy for the price of a new big box store piece of junk [in a side by side comparison.] Yours buffed up very nicely! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seve 3 #9 Posted August 27, 2018 I had a 10:00 am appointment with Larry in Harwington to buy that machine. Glad it went to a RedSquare member. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
