So i have 2008 3520 hydrostatic with cab and have been experiencing a problem with the rear pto. Was using my NH teader rakeand noticed it was slowing down and almost stopping on rough ground. The rake does not have a clutch so it looks like the pto clutch is slipping. I have not done any more...

I have a John Deere 3520 with a 300CX front loader. Problem I’m having is just out of the blue, the lift will not curl up or down. The hydraulic cylinder will move about .125 inch and then it will deadhead the pump and I guess the relief valve flows oil back to the pump. It’s been working great...

Looking to augment my 60" Frontier front mount snow blower and up my slush removal game. We've been getting a lot of wet snows lately and the blower can't handle the last couple of inches of slush, of course. I can do the math easy enough. I've got 4" wheel extenders on the JD3520 so the rears...

There are two questions I would like to ask. The first is to ask if you are happy with it? The second question is how much weight the rear links will comfortably lift? The books say 2500 lbs and I will want to lift a 1200 lb seeder with it. Can I do it, assuming front ballast, etc. The...

I just bought a JD 3520 with a 447 backhoe. I have the manual for the backhoe and downloaded the manual for the tractor. I am trying to remove the hoe and cannot get the rockshaft to move down or at all. It is all the way back and moving it forward does nothing. I turned the DROP/LOCK valve...

OK, In preparation of the spring mowing season, I was going to tackle the job of changing the engine coolant in my JD 3520. It is a 2009 and not a lot of hours on it but long overdue to be changed. I read the owners manual on the procedure. Are there any tips or tricks I should know about to do...

I have a 2007 JD 3520. Over the past year, I've had issues with the brakes seizing up but managed to get this resolved by working them back and forth while I have someone else sprayed PB Blaster on the exposed area behind the back tires. The current issue seems to be a slight lack of power in...

I am looking for some help on adding some hydraulic ports to a John Deere 3520. I have been reading a lot on tactorbynet and other forums trying to learn as much as I can. I am looking at trying to add 3 spools in the back and also add lines/joystick controls for a grapple. I believe the 3520...

A week ago I checked the oil level in my 3520. It was normal level but a little clear for 40 hours on the deere Dino oil. I changed the air filter on the same day. The following day I cut the grass which is a 1.25 hour task. Today I checked the oil level and it is above the max line. It is still...

I know that this question, or a variation of it has been asked about 12 million times! But searching gives me too many non-specific results and I know NOTHING about hydraulics so I need a little hand holding on this. I'm just amazed at guys like J_J that can answer this stuff in their sleep...

I tried to start my JD 3520 this morning and it fired up and cut right off. The display is flashing Error 63..... Does anyone know what this means? I have tried to locate my owners manual which is proving to be no easy task....Thanks in advance for your help.....

I have a 2010 JD 3520 with a front mount 59" snowblower. I have an intermittent problem where the tractor will lose power (not stall), the lights will dim, the heater blower slows, and the hydrostatic drive stops. After 30 secs or so, full power resumes and all devices function properly. No...

I am comparing the 1635 to the John Deer 3520 and New Holland Boomer 35. The 1635 has a greater front lift (1900 lbs) vs JD @1600 and NH @1300. That's significant. Also I noticed that the Lift at the 3 pt hitch is different. Now this is where I'm not sure, what is meant by "lift capacity at...

Hi, I was planning to get a Kioti DK45se HST with loader and turf tires. I'd primarily be using it to cut about 9 acres with a flail mower, and the only other implement I want in the near future is a post hole digger with a 12 or 14 inch auger for planting shrubs and small trees. The property...

I have the regular cruise on my 2013 3520,not the automotive style. I bought the tractor 2nd hand and the cruise would only work when the rear pto was not engaged. As soon as I engaged the rear pto the cruise would not work. Now it doesn't work at all. Anybody have any ideas?

I recently bought a JD 3520 and I love it! I've used it for mowing and last week for spreading 50+ tons of gravel. I don't even want to think about what that job would have been like if I had to use my old walk-behind Gravely! Anyway, I'm looking at a rear mounted blade to help maintain my...

Researched options and usage requirements extensively and have decided to purchase a new John Deere 3520, open platform, with a 300CX loader and medium duty MX-5 rotary cutter. I'll be clearing raw, wooded land for a cabin / garage building site, building a new 800' driveway through the woods...

Hey again! Got the tractor back from being serviced.. they said nothing was wrong with it; it does seem to be doing better after a full "severe duty maintenance" though. Today when we were mowing, the MFWD started having issues engaging; actually, it's engaging, but the light isn't...

Can I put a 72" rear mounted blower on my 3520? A 60" will not cover the rear tire width. Will the tractor have enough power to handle a 72"/

I broke a zerk on one of the u-joints on my front PTO drive shaft that I use for my 59" front-mounted snowblower. My grease gun pulled off the piece with the spring and ball bearing...who knows where it went. I got the base of the zerk out and went to my dealer; he gave me part number JD7760...

Seems like I'm posting a lot of questions on here lately about the tractor... But the other day, it was 102 degrees outside, high humidity. Had AC on full blast, had been mowing about 10 hours.. Was blowing hot air. Cleaned cabin filter, radiator, and grille best that could be done in the...

Filled it up a while back with distilled water. About 20 hours later (today) I look at it once the tractor gets high in temp, and it's below the fill cold line. Added more water. Any ideas what could be causing this so rapidly -- or is it just normal?

Thinking about a 7' twin spindle light duty shredder on a 30PTO deere 3520. Do these use less PTO than a single spindle 6'? The fields I mow are light brush and fairly thin grass - old pasture and cropland. The machine breezes along with a 5' mower at 5MPH on cruise set at min. height (2")...

In a bit of a delima.. I've got an obligation to mow some property that will require an 8 or 10 foot bush hog. Right now I've only got my JD 3520 tractor; the JD 5115M is on order, but won't be here in time to fulfill the mowing timeline. Do you think a 3520 would pull a MX8 or MX10, even if...

Hi folks, I just purchased a new 3520 and had the 300X loader installed at the dealership prior to delivery. Once delivered, I immediately noticed that the round tubing welded between the loader arms, behind the bucket, did not run parallel with the rest of the tractor. Facing the bucket, it...

I already have the tractor. Its a brand new tractor with premium cab and turf tires. The cab ads almost 1000 pounds to the tractor. So im about 2 tons in weight without any attachments. I have the turfs because I have a mmm and do nice mowing around the house. I plan on doing some digging and...

My tractor is out of warranty on my JD 3520 so I'm going to start changing the oil and filter myself. What type of engine oil do you guys recommend? How much oil does the engine hold? The manual says John Deere Plus-50, is that a 15-W40 type? I tried a search but couldn't come up with...

I didn't put the pin in my ROPS when pulling my tractor into the garage and they grazed the top connector of my Third Selective Control Valve (SCV). This caused the hydraulic line to become disconnected and I cannot seem to re-connect. I've tried releasing pressure in the lines according to the...

My new JD 3520 arrived yesterday. I'll add more photos as time permits. If you want to see a picture of any particular detail, just ask. I found I couldn't find enough pictures when I was researching what to buy - there was always something I wondered about just out of camera range.

So I go to do the 400 hour service on my 3520 and the owners manual calls for a person to block the air intake and run the throttle all the way up to check the air restriction sensor. When you do this it should set off the air restriction indicator light on the dash to check to make sure the...

The three way toggle push-in/pull-out lock switch below the joystick doesn't do anything on my tractor. It says it is supposed to lock the joystick, but in all three positions I can still move the loader. Ideas?

Hello to all! I have a JD 3520 w/300cx loader and 60" mower deck. I am looking at a chipper for the back. Any thoughts on the woodmaxx vs. Oxxn?

I tilled up a small food plot and proceeded to spread seed on it. Its a small enough plot that one time down and back seeding with the 3pt spinner spreader takes care of it. The ground was fluffed up enough that I was sinking down about 4-5 inches. Went down and was coming back the tractor...

Well, she's done! Signed papers last Thursday. Dealer said 3-4 weeks for delivery on tractor. Mower and loader will be here in 1 week. Final price, delivered to my door, tires flipped to wide, and all items installed is $34,500. What I decided on is... John Deere 3520 Turbo Diesel Standard...

Bought my JD 3520 new in October 2010. Got the first service at the one year mark with 60 hrs. Changed the oil with breakin oil and new filters. Got the fuel filters changed also. Second year is coming up and I should have close to 120 hours on it. My question is do I go with the breakin oil...

I don't put enough hours on my 3520 so I get the oil changed yearly. I'm getting close to my second yearly service at 115 hrs. I continued with break-in oil with the first oil change. Should I use it again since I'm still under the 200 hr interval? What other services would anyone recommend...

What is a reasonable price for this tractor... In terms of negotiating the dealer down. 2012 New John Deere 3520 with Deluxe Cab, and 300x loader, with Air ride seat. Dealer quoted 35,000 the other day... I'm thinking about standing firm around 30,000 ... Thoughts?

Hello all! I have a new JD 3520 with a FEL. I ordered it with the 3rd SCV, but it came without. I am wanting to be able to run a mechanical top link and possibly a backhoe and boom mower, so I know I need to add some rear hydraulics. My dealer tells me that I can run the backhoe with the...

My 3520 must have a problem in the control valve. It has the electro diverter switch for the remotes, in my case top and tilt. If I let it sit with loader raise it will drift down 8" in an hour. Same with the top and tilt. Anybody else had this problem on the 3x20 series?

I used this sprayer for the first time this spring for lawn broadleaf weeds. It a 40 gallon Fimco with electric pump and 120 inch boom. I've done about 10 acres so far without a problem. I changed out the spray tips that came with it and replaced them with TeeJet air induction tips and a no...

My 3520 rockshaft has stopped operating....was fine when garaged a couple of weeks ago. Any suggestions beyond the operator's manual's suggestions. Any further news on a JD recall for a rockshaft control valve gasket replacement program underway?? Thanks, Bruce

I just purchaced a new jd 3520 over the 3038e. Felt like the 3520 was built much heavier.It was a hard decision because the price diff was 8000$. I bought it to remove snow and to run 15kw generator.

I'm looking into getting a JD 3520 for our hobby land. Things for use would be brush mowing, deer food plots, small projects around the area. Probably digging out the occasional tree stump as well. Looking into a 2008 JD 3520 with 153 hours on it. It has a model 48 backhoe on it and a 300CX...

Thought I should post some pictures for everyone since I found it so helpful to look at everyone elses. I Installed a power beyond kit from JD for $350 and Have about $500 in the rest of it with the wolverine 2 spool valve. I opted to go with 1/4" fittings since I didn't need much flow. I...

While doing brush work with my 3520 eHydro, I snagged and broke off (inside the sensor, natch!) the MFWD speed sensor wires, obviously rendering the sensor non-functional and triggering an error message on the display. The JD part number for the sensor is LVA11184, and this includes the hall...

This will be my first tractor. Been looking for months now and I'm ready to pull the trigger this week if I can just make a decision. I only have about four acres, mostly woods and heavy brush, all flat, and would like to clear most of it and plant pastures, put in some trails for the kids'...

The MFWD lever on my JD 3520 engages smooth and easy but disengages not as smooth. I haven't tried to move the tractor a little bit front or back ever so slightly to see if that helps like I do sometimes to move the range shifter. Its only got about 20 hrs on it so maybe I haven't gotten past...

My three point implements will often slowly drift downwards, especially if the tractor is on bumpy terrain. Is there a way to snug up the lever to prevent this? It seems to have gotten worse lately.

I bought a 3720 cab tractor brand new in 07, and loved it. Someone stole it off a job site this spring, and I ended up having to replace it with a 3520. I love the tractor. But the 37 had just the right amount of power. The 35 does just fine, but I always cringe when I feel the load match...

I'm looking both at JD and Kubota for my first tractor. The Kubota site lists all of the dimensions for their base models, but I was surprised to find the JD site does not. Or if they do, I can't find them. Can anyone clarify why this info isn't readily available on their site? If I go...

Hi, I got the JD front and rear work lights to put on my JD 3520, and the splitters that came with them on the tractor end seem to be just the opposite of what I need. Found the the two purple and black wires behind the seat, one for each side, the black wires have male plugs and the purple...

Hello! First time using this site. I have a E-hydro 3520 w/ 300cx loader and 448 backhoe. Bought it new in early 2008. I have cleared massive wooded areas with this machine and certainly put it through it's paces. Backhoe has yanked massive stumps out. (one busted hydraulic line I replaced.)...

Does anyone know if there is an easy way to increase loader capacity on a 300cx FEL on a 3x20 tractor (i.e. the shim fix for the 790's)? I have seen the easy way to increase the 790, but not sure about the 3520. This is a power reverser model, but I would be interested in knowing the options on...

I am in the market for a new tractor and I have been to the local JD, MF and Kubota dealers for recommendations and prices. I told them that I'm not sure of the specific model because they have so many that fall in the same HP range and that I would leave this to them to recommend. The...

I am looking at getting a 3520 and I always liked the setup of the 12x12 transmission. I am still tossed between the hydro and 12x12 however. Do any of you have experience with any of these two. I want to do brush mowing and some loader work. Any advice would be great.

First Post I am getting ready to purchase a 3520 with gear transmission. I see that the 91.5 ci Yamnar seems small for it's HP output. Should I worry about this? why is the 3320 equiped with a 100 ci vs the 3520 and 3720 that get there pwer from the 91.5? Most other manufactures show larger...

My tractor has less than 120 hours on it. I bought it new. Last yr a few times while shredding I would stop turn off the PTO and move something that was in the way. If I left it idling for a little while it would die and I would have to let it sit awhile before it would start. Today I leave work...

For various reasons, I had to wait for six months before the new tractor was delivered. It was well worth it. I feel bad for trading in my old Massey Ferguson 35 after 14 years, but I'd caught the green fever.:D

Ok - don't laugh but one of the neighbors in the area is concerned about the "unregulated emissions" from my new 2009 JD 3520 diesel engine. He seems to think the diesel in my tractor is polluting the environment and would rather see tall grass blowing in the breeze than me keeping it cut...

Buying a JD 3520 series machine. One of my coworkers gave me a hard time about not buying New Holland as we get a discount with them. He said the JD and NEw Holland tractors come down the same assembly line. I an not sure where JD manufactures their 3000 series tractors but I find it hard ot...

I have a 1.5 year old John Deere 3520 tractor with a 300 CX loader. It is a hydrostatic 4x4 model. Ever since I've had the tractor the tranny whines a lot and the loader and three point lift are very jumpy. I brought it back to the dealer several months ago and they said they couldn't find any...

Anybody come down to these two tractors before deciding what to buy? If so, which one did you buy and why? I'm looking to upgrade from my 1995 JD 870. I like the smaller frame size but would like a few more horsepower (and a new tractor!!!:)). Unsure if I'd go GST/PowerReverser (I prefer...

As my previous thread was shut down I wanted to get back to those who gave me sound advice. All of it was greatly appreciated, and yes, I spent a fair amount of time looking at every brand offered by dealers within a decent driving range. I ended up with a Kubota L4630 tractor, LA853 FEL, RAD...

Found a nice 2005 John Deere 3520, can't remember hours like 50 or so used very little. It has E-Hydro, rear remotes I'm guessing it has two hydro lines on the right rear fender, the 300X FEL, also 60" Rotary cutter, 57" Rotary tiller "brand new never used" and the 6' rear blade. All...

Howdy- My first post. Looking at a used 3520 and wondering if the mid PTO option can be installed as an upgrade or does it have to be installed as a factory option? JD wesbite says it's a $400 option, but does not indicate if it can be added at a later date. Also, wondering if the 62D mid...

My first post and possible a first tractor. I have found a 2006 3520 with power reverser, 300 cx loader with 73 inch HD buket with bolt on cutting edge. It has the R1 tires on it with no extra's. The tractors has only 31 hours on it and the price is $18,ooo. Warranty is good until November. Is...

Last week I ordered a new JD 3520 with a 300CX loader & heavy duty 72" quick detach bucket with replaceable cutting bar. I have owned several tractors but this is my first new one. I plan on buying for attachments a tiller, pallet forks, brush hog, box blade, clam bucket, & post hole digger. I...

I have a 3520 cab tractor that puts 30hp (I think) to the pto shaft. My dealer says it will turn a 7 foot 3pt finish mower or a 15 foot batwing finish mower. The batwing is out of my price range, but I would like to get rid of my MMM in favor of a 3pt mower, and I can not decide between a...

Looking to replace a NHTC33Da that I lost in an auto accident. I'm between a kubota L3540 and the JD 3520. I'm trying to match the NH I had but want a little more power and more weight. Looking at the specs both the Kubota and JD seem fairly equal. I'll also be buying a FEL and a BH. The Kubota...

I am looking to hear from someone who has some experience w/ a newer 3520. I am planning on purchasing a new one here soon. I have done a little shopping around and the best I have found is 3520 w/ehydro,r4s,mid pto,telescoping links,rear work light,3rd scv,and motion match. Also a 300cx heavy...

A dealer has offered me a 2006 JD3520 with a factory cab (with A/C and heat) and a factory loader for $22,000. It has 130 hours on it. It also has bar tires, and I really need ag tires for the mud and snow in my pastures. Is this a good price? Any ideas on how I can get him to change to ag...

GOAL: Build or buy and install an intermittent wiper control for a JD3520 cab. THE FACTS: TBN Member Dirtworksequip has a JD3520 cab with windshield wiper. The wiper works by an electric switch. The wiper is either on or off and stops wherever it is when the switch is turned off. He...

I have 10 acres of land, need to plow my 100 foot driveway, mow lawn and field and repair my stone driveway amongst other usage. I am looking at the three tractors above. Will need HST, R4s, Front End Loader, mid mount mower or rear (undecided), QA on FEL so I can mate with a curtis snow plow...

Hello, thanks for your help. Just got a price quote for a 3520 with 300x loader and 61 inch materials bucket. No mid-mount PTO, has air ride seat and standard wheels and tires. $ 18,799.00 plus tax, out the door. What do you think?

The fuel guage on my 3520 is acting strange. It is new, <30 hrs. Yesterday after it had been parked for a while, I fired it up to put it away. As I pulled into the garage the fuel light began rapidly blinking and the guage dropped to E. I turned it off and back on and it stayed on E and the...

Anyone really compared the TC33 and JD 3520? Price: I can buy the TC33 w/ supersteer for $1200 less than the 3520. But the 3520 has more PTO hp and overall HP (37 vs 33). I am planning on keeping this tractor for the long haul (20 years) and want to make the right decision and not buy...

I like the Deere better, it is more ergonomic and has more bells, I like the foot pedals for the HST vr.s the rocker pedal HST on the Kubota. Kubota also has the grands with more bells , same HP although. I do not like the $4k more for the Deere although.

I am looking at the Kubota L3830 and the John Deere 3520, both of which are about the same price, and have many of the same features. I'd be interested to hear which tractor you think I should purchase and why. Thanks, jmakinst

Just found this web site last evening and stayed up to 2:00 am reading alot of good advice. I have a 1993 Kubota B2150 with FEL and 2500 hours. Kubota dealer has been talking to me about trading for new Kubota and I was thinking about it but after looking around thinking of going with JD 3520...

Just bought a JD3520 (3 total hours on the machine). I was wondering what the LoadMatch function really does and when it would be used. The operator manual does not give much info.

I've been looking at the John Deere 3520 with a 300CX loader. The trouble is the loader can't do some boom/bucket operations simultaneously (see JD thread). I've contacted JD, but so far they haven't answered me - kinda felt like they wish I'd go away so they didn't have to admit the problem...

Jd dealer brought me a brand new 3520 today. While driving it it was really jerky almost thew me off a few times. Bucked like a wild horse and it almost tipped over a few times as well even with no load. i have had a tractor (27 horse) for some years and I never had that problem, was I doing...

Both are priced the same in michigan with loaders for around 22k. I am assuming either one will work. i have a Kubota 2710 HST which i will trade in, or sell i don't know why because the Kubota dealer told me my tractor will outperform them both and i believe it. It runs like a swiss clock it...

Looking at these 2 tractors, anyone have an opinion on pro's and con's of each.
