These are pictures Mike Biery sent me of his Hawk Bilt Groundsaw. Here’s Mike’s story of how he got and restored it.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

“A fellow Club Member and collector contacted me about an Allis Chalmer B-10 with a trencher mounted on the back of it that was going to be on a farm auction near Sidney Ohio on May 5th 2012. This got me curious because up until then I had never seen one except for pictures. I was able get some pictures of it and from doing some research was able to figure out it was a Hawk Bilt H-900 Ground Saw. I was fortunate enough to have the winning bid at the auction too.<\/p>\n

The restoration involved completely disassembling the trencher and tractor, sandblasting, repairing or replacing worn or rusted out parts, all new hydraulic hoses and all new belts, repainting and reassembly. I had a lot of help from several friends on this project too. I still have a few thing to finish up on this project such as fabricating a new dirt auger and maybe a new digging chain. I plan on using my Ground saw around the farm and taking it to shows as well.”<\/p>\n

Mike tells me that his groundsaw is powered by the three belts shown below.\u00a0 The forward motion of the groundsaw is produced by a belt from the groundsaw back to the transmission.\u00a0 I’m assuming that’s the pulleys shown in the picture on the right below.<\/p>\n
