RDX-117 Snow Blower

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides detailed specifications and features of the Schulte RDX-117 snow blower, highlighting its design, performance, and operational capabilities.
Specifications: The RDX-117 has a cutting width of 117 inches and a cutting height of 45.5 inches. It is compatible with tractors having 140-220 HP, though less horsepower is required for hydrostatically driven tractors. The fan diameter is 38 inches with a 5-paddle design, and the auger diameters are 23 inches (bottom) and 14 inches (top). The unit weighs 3085 lbs and includes a hydraulic chute rotation mechanism and adjustable skid shoes.
Design and Features: The snow blower features a hydraulically operated rotating fan housing, allowing snow to be ejected to the left, right, or through the center chute. The fan is driven by a 1000 RPM gear system and is mounted on a 2-inch tapered splined shaft. The RDX-117 includes a double chute deflector to reduce blowback and a 300-degree rotating chute design with a UHMW bearing area to minimize freeze-ups.
Performance: The RDX-117 is designed to handle heavy, wet snow efficiently, with a capacity of 762 tons/hr for dry snow and 2633 tons/hr for wet snow. The open auger design and reinforced bottom auger facilitate cutting into hard-packed snow.
Additional Features: The unit includes shear bolt protection, a reversible cutting blade, and a gear-on-gear chute rotator driven by a hydraulic motor. Optional features include heavy-duty chutes, truck loading chutes, and gauge wheels for paved surfaces.
Construction: The drum is made of Hardox 450, providing high resistance to abrasion. The enclosed chain case with a spring tension tightener ensures constant tension on the auger drive chain, reducing wear and potential freeze-ups.
Compatibility: The RDX-117 can be used with the FM-300 front mount 3pt hitch frame, accommodating tractors with a maximum horsepower of 250 HP and providing an average lift range of 18 inches.

RDX-117 Snow Blower-1

Snow Blower Rotation angles of 25° to left, through center chute or 52° to right A hydraulically operated rotating fan housing allows snow to be ejected out the left or right side of the fan housing. Delivering snow directly off the fan blades and out aids in moving heavy wet snow and is more efficient when using in open areas. The center chute can be used to cast snow directionally as needed in confined areas. The Schulte’s RDX-117 incorporates a 38” Five paddle open center cupped style fan which improves performance and is larger than most competitive designs on the market. A 1000 RPM gear driven drive system is standard. The fan is held in place by a 2” tapered splined shaft. A size 8 Bondioli power shaft is included with shear pin protection to power the blower. A Bondioli Italian made one piece gearbox drives this unit. A heavily reinforced 23” bottom auger with formed struts ensures that hard chunks of snow and ice are fed into the fan with ease. This large open bottom auger also allows the snow blower to cut into hard pack snow where other snow blowers have difficulty. A 300° rotating chute design includes a UHMW bearing area to reduce freeze up of the chute. The new double deflector design reduces blowback when the chute deflector is placed in the down position. A hydraulic cylinder for adjusting the chute deflector is standard. Shear bolt protection for the fan & cross auger.
