The 525s are handy. They are great till that darn engine/transaxle combo gives up then it's to the scrap pile. Dad actually had one years ago and loved it but it too chunked a rod which trashed the whole composite unit.
I saw a super clean F510 in my local craigslist with only 300 hours on it for $1000 which I thought was well worth the money. I'm mower poor so I left it alone. I knew if I ever went to look at the thing it would follow me home so I just ignored it. It looks brand new!
Dad now uses an F735 frontdeck which uses a baby yanmar diesel. It sounds like a rattle trap at idle but is smooth as silk and quiet while under load. The 735 has a slight advantage over the 525 by being able to lift and carry the deck in the raised position. Dad hates to mow the yard but you couldnt pry the 735 out of his cold dead hands. He says if you're gonna have to endure mowing the yard, you might as well be comfortable. The blade tip speed on the 735 with the 7 iron deck must be 8 kinds of fast. His blades are usually about as sharp as a pice of black iron water pipe on the broad side but somehow it can still mow grass cleanly just as fast as the 735 can travel across the yard. Deere has the commercial deck figured out! It's heavy and has incredible suck for a clean cut.

My model "H" even had the old style fronts with plenty of tread. My "L" fronts were mismatched Sears Guardsman snow tires, which I promptly tossed. Well, although these tires were in good shape as far as tread was concerned, they looked real sad. All were flat, but new tubes fixed that. In addition to years and years of scuffing and fading, they had paint splattered on
