My X520 just turned 300 hours this afternoon.
So far for the last 5 years I have not had a single problem.
300 hour overview.

Engine
Has great power. I have yet to stall it doing normal and heavy mowing. I did stall it once when I tried to turn on the blades in waist high grass.:wink:
Also it is easy to do the daily pre start checks and work when needed.
Transmission
The transmission is very strong. I have pulled stuff that it should not pull, like logs and a truck. The transmission did not even groan.
Mower
The 54'' mower is the best I have used. It cuts smooth and level. The deck handles wet heavy thick grass with ease.
The deck is the easiest to remove and install out of all my equipment.
Removal and installation of the mower takes less than five minutes and no tools.
The deck is easy to keep clean of debris and easy to keep greased.
Fit and finish
This machine is built like a tank. The body panels fit together very well.
Dislikes.
The only thing I do not like about this machine is the headlight could be brighter and it needs tail lights or a rear work light.
Overall I would buy another one of these tractors if I got the chance.
I would recommend this tractor or any of the X5xx series tractors to someone who was in the market for a new or used garden tractor.
