I have a very recently restored 1989 wheel horse 520-HC tractor with 60” deck. Family owned for over 10 years but now it’s time for another project. Please contact me with any questions I have the original 60” deck but it was rough so I sourced the current deck off this site, it really is in excellent condition for not being restored.

1988 520-HC Ber-Vac snow thrower modified crank rod
cafoose posted a topic in Implements and Attachments
I just got finished making up a crank rod to turn the snow thrower chute on my 520-HC with a Ber-Vac snow thrower. Here are some pics of how I did it. I am very pleased with the results. I used a 3/8 drive universal and a 3/8 drive extension. My neighbor welded the extension into a piece of 1/2 inch conduit and the universal into a piece of 3/4 inch conduit. Then he welded the original crank handle in the other end of the 1/2 inch conduit. The universal snaps into the extension giving me the flexible joint I need for the angle and also it's easy to remove when I remove the snow thrower with no tools. I can let the universal attached to the snow thrower. The 3/4 conduit has a 3/8 hole drilled in it for a bolt to fasten it to the chute gear on the snow thrower. The 1/2 inch conduit fits perfectly in the hole on the support bracket attached to the tractor. All I need to do now is make an attachment for the lift assist springs on the front quick hitch bracket. -
attaching Ber-Vac W0246D snow thrower to 520-HC
cafoose posted a topic in Implements and Attachments
I am still trying to attach the Ber-Vac W0246D snow thrower to my 520-HC. I was busy the last few days and just got around to working on it again. Here are some pics of the parts I have for it. I think I may be missing some parts. I got a lot of useful info from everybody here the last few days and I want to thank you all for your help so far. For more pics of what I have please see the topic "New Toy" I posted last Thursday March 3. -
I just got done mowing and when I parked my 1988 520-HC with the 20hp Onan I noticed the engine was surging at idle between 1500 to 1700 rpm and the vacuum gauge fluctuated between 4 to 13hg. At full throttle it seemed to straighten out and run smoothly. Does anyone have any ideas what I should check? It ran fine while mowing at full throttle.

1988 520-HC Ber-Vac W046D snowthrower lift assist springs
cafoose posted a topic in Implements and Attachments
Does anyone have any pictures of how the lift assist springs attach to the Ber-Vac snowthrower on the 520-HC? I know it's past the snow season but I would like to get it done while it's on the tractor so I can remove it to put the deck on and be ready to attach it next year without any delay. -
I just got a 1988 520-HC with a Ber-Vac W046D snow thrower. I downloaded the manuals from here and they just basically show the parts. I would like to know how to attach it to the tractor. If anyone has any pictures of a similar snow blower on a similar tractor or could at least point me to a topic or thread that could help me attach it I would really appreciate it.
