Cee245 819 #1 Posted August 11, 2018 Hello, I just checked this 520xi out. Comes with a single stage snowblower. Does anyone know the year of snowblower and tractor? I'm guessing 98 for the blower and 2002 for the tractor. Cory 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cee245 819 #3 Posted August 11, 2018 Thanks Garry. That's what I thought based off the serial #'s. We only really wanted the snowblower and the guy is willing to separate. He wants 1600 for everything Cory Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kurt-NEPA 755 #4 Posted August 11, 2018 Nice Tractor, You are going to like it. I agree with Garry 2002 tractor and 1998 blower. Nice 52 inch deck too. A single stage blower is a nice match for our NEPA winters. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cee245 819 #6 Posted August 11, 2018 Ya, it's in real nice shape overall. Deck is really nice underneath too with new blades. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cee245 819 #7 Posted August 12, 2018 (edited) It's only 15 miles away also. My retired Dad and I are going to look at it Monday afternoon when he gets back in town. I looked at it today alone and those are my pictures posted. Hopefully we all can work out a deal. My dad wants the snowblower only, I want the whole package. Haha Then he says maybe I'll use the new one for snowblower duties only. And I can have the deck to which I don't have a tractor to use it! Lol. Sounds like he is getting the ole WH itch. Collectively, me, dad and 2 brothers own 6 Wheel Horse Tractors. It will be fun to figure out who wants what implement ect.

shallowwatersailor 3,213 #8 Posted August 12, 2018 I miss my 5xi tractors! That looks like a nice clean one. A clue that a snowthrower/snowblower was used is the worn side panel decal. The chute direction crank wears a white spot into it. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cee245 819 #9 Posted August 12, 2018 Thanks for the tip @shallowwatersailor. If we get this, that'll be 3 520xi's. Getting to know them better Cory Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WVHillbilly520H 10,374 #10 Posted August 13, 2018 It'll look a bit like this all mounted up...the xi was a nice machine just liked my Onan powered 520H better. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cee245 819 #11 Posted August 13, 2018 Yep. Looks close to that. I'll post pics if the sale goes through tomorrow night. Cory 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cee245 819 #12 Posted August 13, 2018 Well guys, we got the whole package! I forgot to take any pics. Sorry! It needs a deck belt and all fluids changed and everything greased. It sat outside under a tarp for a long time. I think it will clean up well. The seller has a couple plows too and a 520LXI with a 60" deck but that stuff looked like it's been sitting outside for 5 years. Cory 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shallowwatersailor 3,213 #13 Posted August 13, 2018 Ooh! Sitting under a tarp makes a nice home for mice. You might take a look under the shrouds. Nice addition! 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cee245 819 #14 Posted August 14, 2018 Thanks @shallowwatersailor I've never done that with the other 2 520xi's. Is it kinda sorta similar to the onan's? I thought I've read here that you have to remove the motor or something?? We will know more in the next few days after we pick it up and take a closer look at everything.

WHX?? 49,515 #16 Posted August 16, 2018 (edited) Nice Cory ...good price too. I would really like one of those. What with 3 520s I would have no idea what I would do with it but I would really like one! Maybe just park it in the garage and look at it ... use the beverage holder occasionally!

Cee245 819 #18 Posted August 16, 2018 Thanks My Dad ended up buying and will be using all attachments. It's identical except for build year for what he has now. Just made sense for us. Thanks Cory 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
