I had a couple of Greenfields, excellent mowers. They remind me of early series Landrovers, any man in a shed can bring them back to life due to their simplicity and robust design. Definitely an Aussie legend, up there with the Hills hoist and Holden cars, oh and Bruce.😂

A hobby of mine is mowers. I have built Outlaw class racers (take a 18hp Briggs V-twin and make it push 45hp@9000rpm on a dropped and widened chassis), heavy class pullers (Old Cub Cadets with beefed up rear ends carrying way more weights than they were designed for) and fixing up old donors that I was given or bought cheap. I've seen the insides of lots of transaxles, separate transmissions with chain drive to an axle diff, hydrostatics, zero turns and that Vari-Drive that MTD used. But I've never seen a drive system like that, the nearest I'd compare it to is a slip drive on a Craftsman snowblower. Seeing tech like that from other parts of the world is pretty neat, I may have to steal the idea for one of my bushwhacker builds. Cheers from Canada.

Thanks for taking the time to make these videos, it is always good to learn new things from someone who can explain things well and is very knowledgeable. Cheers Mate!!

Great video Bruce. I remember my old Greenfield had the tensioner underneath like you mentioned. Built with heavy gauge steel the thing weighed a tonne and had the longest drive belt in history. It was the toughest mower I’ve ever seen.
@garyphillips7993
It’d be a nice little series to see this fixed up, oil leak fixed, seat, rollers etc 👍
@michaelweatherhead9470
Thanks for the video Bruce great job getting it running ❤. Be Blessed to you and your family and friends and your 🐕.
@Azureecosse
sounded like V8 when it got movin. Love Jacks he is an inquisitive wee character, interesting video, Kawasaki better than any "Breaks and Scrap em" motor Many Thanks
@nolanthompson2701
Now that one was what we call an easy start-up! Nice mower right there. Good work as always, Bruce!
@JH-vf8rm
Thank you for the content Bruce and Jack!
@slepper98

Thanks for the history lesson Bruce, I have a Fastcut 32 with the 15.5hp Briggs. I bought it with 10 hours on it and it has over 500 now. It also came with the dozer blade option which has been handy to level out ground and filling in rabbit holes. Between those two plates on the back for a tow pin I fitted a piece of heavy duty RHS and welded a pipe to take a drop in towball. I use it to tow my 8x4 trailer around my 3 acres collecting wood etc and to tow my 28t log splitter. and a bracket to take the wheelie bins to the gate. It's such a versatile machine, I love it. The only con is it understeers quite badly on sandy soils. Cox bought out Greenfield and only do a couple of models now. I recently purchased two of those deck wheels on ebay. Cheers from the bottom of WA.

Those small Kawasaki motors are the best. Im not sure about todays. I just know a long time ago we had a ealk behind mower from the 90s. It has a Kawasaki on it. It never gave us any problems ever. Always started.
@rods6405
Great video! I love my greenfield mower! If you lube up the complete forward reverse system mainly the pivot between the discs reverse might come back also replace the belts . I have 2 cork discs that I did not use once I pulled apart the system and lubed it!
@GreyRockOne
Thanks Bruce, a big change from the huge MEGA machines you usually have.. love the hood (bonnet) scoop!
@notch8971
Jack reminds me of my old Otis best damn mouser and ratter and snake getter i ever new but most of all he was me best mate as you all say down under. I miss him.
@rossdmcc
I only wish I could find a mower made that well here in Oklahoma, USA. Nothing made here in the last 20 years even comes close unless you spend a small fortune. I really enjoy your videos Bruce. Thanks.
@mischef18
Enjoyed all of this video bro, from your history on them they were the mower to have for sure. Ken.
@Sircraig7963
G'day Bruce, I've always found it much easier to get the kids to do the lawn since upgrading to the ride on . Was good to see your familar with them too. How about some motor cycle content if the oppertunity presents . The very early modles have some very interesting manufacturing design & technology, they would be a real treat , particularly if a collector would like to show some of his classics. Thanks cobber.
