Model year: 2008 Date Purchased: 2010-02-18 Number of Hours: 290

"Tractor has excellent power but so far at 290 hours I am having problems with fuel guage not reading at times and I just had to replace front timing cover gaskets for coolant leak issues. Sounds like this is a problem on all 4520's. Not a bad job to do. Takes about 6-7 hours but not a problem I think should happen at this low of hours, also having problems with it setting a code 14 and not moving about once a month."

REVIEWER'S ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Pros: Amount of power for size. Cons: Seems to be a lot of problems for hours and age of tractor. Type of User: Homeowner 50-100 Acres Location: USA WI I also considered buying:

"Great tractor so far. Love the cab. The loader and 3 point hitch both have good lifting power. The e-hydro is great. I love just pushing on the hydro pedal and the engine and speed increase like driving a car. I bought mine used with 126 hrs., 2 yrs old, still like new and saved a lot of money. Shifting from A-B-C is tricky but once you get used to it is okay. 4 wheel drive shifts in okay and shifts out okay if you are stopped and turn the steering back and forth and gently pull the shift lever. Cab keeps me toasty while plowing snow and getting firewood."

REVIEWER'S ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Pros: Good power. Cons: Extras expensive. Type of User: Homeowner 50-100 Acres Location: USA OH I also considered buying:

"I am a new hobby farm and tractor owner. Although I have only 10 or so hours on the machine, it has been a blast. Mostly moving snow, wood and pulling logs so far. The 400X loader has been adequate and is easy to use. I also have a Frontier WC1105 wood chipper that has handled everything so far and worked well. I am pleased with my decision to go with the larger 4520 with a cab and very happy with my local dealer and the support I received."

REVIEWER'S ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Pros: Size, power, ease of operation. Easy to attach and remove implements. Cons: Still looking. Type of User: Homeowner 10-50 Acres Location: USA MN I also considered buying: John Deere 3520, Kubota B3030

"A tornado took the 30 acres of timber laid down the cattle fencing and over all clean up of 80 acres of land. Owned a 3600 GST Kubota that was unable to do needed task. Today tractor is still working as needed to feed cattle and load hay bales off the trailer trucks Bush hog and clean the area with fel. Good fuel hours and no problems other than normal maintenance. Hydraulic cyl. could of been stronger have blown seal lifting with fel. "

REVIEWER'S ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Pros: In a couple of years will be traded in for the 50 series. Cons: Open platform next will be a cab style. Type of User: Homeowner 50-100 Acres Location: USA AR I also considered buying:
