richmondred01 2,237 #1 Posted October 3, 2018 It doesn’t get much better then opening a package from Wheelhorseman1000. Outstanding workmanship. Quality parts. Great Service. Now we will see how this 520-8 does in the snow. It’s got to be better then the bitter disappointment of the 520-h. 1 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AMC RULES 37,129 #2 Posted October 3, 2018 Really, what was disappointing about the hydro? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
richmondred01 2,237 #3 Posted October 4, 2018 The last time we got into this there were hurt feelings. So I’m not going down that road again. I’m not a hydro guy for pushing snow. I’ll leave it at that. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tankman 3,518 #4 Posted October 4, 2018 My '90 520-8 is great pushin, white wet cold junque. Although always a Kohler lover, the 20 hp Onan purrs pushin' snow or mowing. I got my 1st Horse 40+ years ago. Don't know why but, definitely prefer the manuals over hydros. The short legged grandsons like the hydros. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
littleredrider 409 #5 Posted October 4, 2018 Mine pushes snow pretty good. Leave it in 2nd, and steer. Hydro lift would be nice tho, sometimes lifting the blade is a bear.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
