Schulte FM-115 Operator's Manual page 28

INTRODUCTION
The FM-115 allows you to mount your 3PT hitch snow blower to the front of your tractor resulting in improved
visibility and ergonomics. The Schulte FM-115 is designed for simple and quick tractor mounting and removal.
Once mounted to the tractor all pushing force is transmitted to the snow blower through the tractor drawbar.
The slot and pin mounting system at the front end ensures that the tractor only sees vertical load at the frame
mounting points. The FM-115 is available with or without a drive package. Ordering without drives allows an
operator to utilize the Schulte SV Plow in front of the tractor while keeping the rear 3-Point open for a Schulte
snow blower. The FM-115 with drives is a perfect match for Schulte model SDX or RDX snow blowers. The
drive line is capable of transferring 115 HP to the snow blower. The optional drive package efficiently transfers
the 540 RPM power to the front of the tractor. The drive line is fully shielded to meet the latest safety standards.
It is mandatory that all operators of this implement read this manual or be instructed of its contents regarding
safety, proper operation, and maintenance before beginning operation.
As used in this manual, the following definitions apply:
'LEFT' means the side that is to the left when the operator is facing in the normal forward direction of the
tractor.
'RIGHT' means the side that is to the right when the operator is facing in the normal forward direction of the
tractor.
