FX-1800 Rotary Cutter - 15ft

$0.00

Rental Rates: $20 / Acre

The SCHULTE FX-1800 is a medium-duty 15' flex-wing rotary cutter built for durability, clean performance, and smooth operation in the field.

A single domed 7-gauge, fully welded deck makes cleaning easy, prevents water pooling and rust, and helps shed debris efficiently.

This cutter delivers a 6.5" blade overlap and high blade tip speeds for a cleaner, more consistent cut.

The four-gearbox driveline features independent slip clutches and heavy-duty Bondioli gearboxes for unmatched reliability.

  • Splitter gearbox: 1 3/4" 20-spline input/output, rated at 260 HP (194 kW)

  • Center & wing gearboxes: 1 3/4" 20-spline input, 2 3/8" down shafts, rated at 225 HP (168 kW)

An 80-degree CV shaft provides smooth power transfer during tight turns.

  • 540 rpm: Category 6 CV

  • 1000 rpm: Category 5 CV

Self-adjusting friction clutches protect the driveline and maintain optimal performance — all positioned under the main shield for easy service access.

The FX-1800 includes spun-formed 7-gauge stump jumpers, ensuring durability, smooth operation, and excellent balance.

Available in 540 or 1000 rpm configurations.
