Schulte FLX-1510 Flex Arm

Value a Trade Get Financed

Overview

Increase operator safety, comfort and performance with the revolutionary Schulte Flex-Arm.
The Schulte Flex-Arm allows the operator to travel on the road while the Schulte 10’ or 15’ rotary cutter cuts the ditch slope.
The tractor does not have to ride on the ditch slope so rollovers are very low risk. As an added bonus, wear & tear on the tractor is greatly reduced.
Operator comfort is greatly increased. Operators who have had a chance to use the Schulte FLEX-ARM say comfort & safety are the best features.
Visibility is improved. The operator is placed in a better position to view obstacles before they reach the rotary cutter.
The FLEX-ARM and Schulte cutter can be used in wet conditions, which could make cutting more difficult if the tractor had to ride on the slope.
Because of the unique way in which the FLEX-ARM is attached to the rotary cutter, it can be easily backed up to cut around approaches and other obstacles.
