Picked up a 257-H today for $150

[PWL216 889]

I have a 520-H with a Johnson TC10 loader, a 314-H with a plow blade, a 314-8 with multiple decks, a 121 Automatic with 36” rear discharge deck and a 105-8 with a deck and short-chute snowblower and I’m still REALLY happy to get this one! The 121, 105 and possibly one of the 314’s may go up for sale at some point…

 

It has a vertical shaft Kawasaki motor and an easy step thru. I realize it’s just a lawn tractor so I’ll use it only for mowing my 1 acre lawn. The bigger boys will do the bigger jobs! 402 hours on it. Solid deck. The PTO switch is good, but there’s an issue at the other end of it that needs attention. I’m not sure what the part is called, so this will be a new learning experience for me - looking forward to it!

                             As we get older this is a very important consideration.
