I know this topic has been discussed, but with spring now ALMOST here, I would like to get some opinions regarding mower blades. I have an X495 with the 62" deck, and also a 2520 with the 62D deck. I'm due to replace the blades on the 495 deck, and would like ask the knowledgeable folks here a...

Why are the folding ROPS on the 2520/2720 canted forward, and not straight when in the up position. A lot of other JD's have the folding ROPS and are straight in the up position. Is there any particular reason for this? Just wondering..... REV

I purchased my new 2520 in September. Previously I was using an X495 with the Front Quickhitch and JD 54" Blade for snow removal. I had to use chains on the X495, and was hoping to get away without chains with the new 2520. With all the talk about the R4 Industrial tires not being all that good...

I thought I would start a new thread on this because people are probably tired of the old thread and may not see this, which I think is pretty important. Since there seemed to be a lot of confusion about this, I called my dealer, and at first he wasn't really sure, but luckily they had a new...

I recently got a new JD2520 with R4 tires, and really haven't had a chance to use it with any reasonable amount of snow. From the post I've been reading hear, sounds like I should have ordered the turf tires. I don't want to chain them unless absolutely necessary, so is there anyone out there...

I recently purchased a new 2010 JD2520. I have read the owners manual regarding the startup procedure, but it really doesn't address my question. In the warmer weather, I just turned the key right over to the cranking position and away she went with just a few turns of the starter. Now in the...

Sorry.....should have posted this on the "Owning and Operating" section. I moved it. REV

I have a new 2520, which I just got it in September. Today, I decided to switch out the mower and loader, for the front quick hitch and blade, to get her ready for winter. (First time I've done this) After a little fooling around to get the bracket that holds the front hitch on, since I didn't...

Well, when all else fails, go to the experts, so here goes. I recently bought a new JD 2520. I also have an X495, for which I also had a JD Front Quick Hitch, and the JD 54" blade. When I ordered the 2520, part of my deal was to trade the hitch I had, for the proper one to fit the 2520. I also...

I just got my new 2520, and I think I read somewhere that the Hydrostatic Transmission in the 20 series models have a pretty good whine to them. I also have an X495, but the 2520 is a far more noticeable (louder) whining noise. Almost sounds like it's straining. Is this normal? Does it get any...

Well here goes.......especially for JDGreenGrass. JD2520 200CX Loader and 53" Bucket Bucket Hook 62D MMM I Match Front Quick Tatch (I already have the 54" Blade) Ballast Box Rear Work Light Deck Lock-up Kit "Mystery Accessory" It's funny, everyone posts pics of their new tractors, and really...

My new 2520 arrived at my dealer on Friday (Aug 28). I just had a chance to drop in today to have a look at it, as they have just started to get it ready. Really, its the first chance I have had to a have a "serious" look at a 2520. Most dealers around here, usually stock a number of the...

This is probably a real dumb question, but here goes...... I have read a lot of discussions about the 2320/2520 and the difficulty some have in mowing while in high range. The question I have (as a real novice, never having had a multi range hydro) is, since both ranges of the transmission...

This has probably been discussed before, but I couldn't find a thread, so here goes again. I have an X495 with the 62C deck, and soon to have a 2520 with the 62D. First question, do both decks take the same blade, whether OEM or aftermarket? Secondly, for those that have used the "Gator...

I have a 62C mower on an X495, and soon to have a 62D on a JD2520. Does anyone know if both mowers take the same Gator Blade? Also, can anyone give me the correct Gator part# for the appropriate blades for each deck (Hopefully the are the same)? I went to a dealer to check out the blades the...

I have a new 2520 on order and have asked my dealer a question and he really isn't exactly sure of the answer, but says he will get back to me. Maybe I can get a quicker answer here. The tractor is going to have the 62D MMM, without the independent lift. Meaning the deck height will be...

Hello all......I just registered on the forum, but have been following the posts in the CUT forums for a while. Seems there are a lot of very knowlegeable & helpful folks here, willing to share their views. I have a JD X495 with the 62C mower deck, front quick tatch and 54" Blade, and the...

Hello all.......I just registered on the site, but have been following the forums for a while. I live in Southern Ontario Canada, about 40 miles from Buffalo NY. I have a JD X495 Garden Tractor with the 62C mower, a 54"Blade, with front quick tatch hitch, and tractor trunk. I also have a...
