Morning All,

There has been a lot of questions regarding the one in-between model greenfield that no one can identify. I used to work at a greenfield dealer and tried greenfield themselves, but got nowhere. The only reference I have ever found was in the back of an original parts list for a HD8 there was a reference to a HD10 drive belt and it did match with this machine.

A bit about it,
It is different to a tractor model in every way bar the initial look from a distance. and although mechanically similar to a HD8, still a very different animal
Starting at the front it is horizontal shaft, the Briggs and Stratton appears original, mine is original electric start, I have seen photos of manual start only (different dash cowl) 75 year model from memory.
The front axle is very different as the belts run under it, the pulleys are mounted way out front, similar to later anniversary models.
The deck is right hand throw 28" and very similar to a HD, the deck moves to tension the belt
At the back it gets really different.
For a start the Drive clutches are the smallest I have ever seen fitted to a greenfield. Even smaller than say an old XL5. there is a part number on the plates but i cant remember without loloking.
Drive belt part No.s are GT382 and GT383. The traction drive belt is the longest I have ever seen, it is an A section 150 something (154 rings a bell)
Now because of the very small clutch pulleys the standard reduction wasn't enough, so it has 2 reductions by chain before the back wheel. I liken this to a rover setup, and is still the only greenfield i have seen with 2 chains.
Every piece of cowling is different, the bonnet is higher, the alloy insert is a different shape, the dash cowl has to be removed to get the battery out (PITA!) and the rear cowl is completely different.
Finally I don't have any pictures of it yet, but it does have the standard tractor mounting for the dozer blade up front, one of which i finally found on Saturday for $50 and mounted it up yesterday!


I have a heap of images uploading, and will attach them later. Any questions don't hesitate to ask
