BМЕ-1015
Characteristics:

Water movement
The construction of the snow and swamp-going vehicle allows you to move around the water, swampy terrain, on open and ice-covered pounds. Movement on the water is carried out due to the rotation of the wheels, optionally the propeller driven by the engine is installed on the snow and swamp-going vehicle.With a propeller, the speed of the water reaches 8 km / h. The direction of movement is changed by the front wheels.Ultra low pressure tires

- movement along the swamp dry forest;
- driving on thin ice;
- Driving through stumps and driftwood.

Body made of fiberglass
The snowbaths body is made of fiberglass plastic and has a sandwich-type design with an internal molding for providing heat and sound insulation of the cabin. The rigidity of the body is determined by its design and internal metal fenders.Folding hatch

ADVANCED OPTIONS
|
Gear box and clutch | ![]() |
A 5-speed manual gearbox + 1 reverse gear is mounted on the snowbaths.Coupling is single-disk, dry with diaphragm pressure spring and hydraulic shut-off drive. |
Transfer gear box | ![]() |
On the snowbaths there is a transfer gear box with high and low gears and a lockable center differential. The front and rear axles have a permanent drive and are connected by an interaxle differential that distributes the torque between them, depending on the resistance to movement of the wheels. To increase the patency of the snowbaths, you can lock the differential, thereby aligning the speeds of the front and rear drive shafts. |
Axles | ![]() |
Front and rear axle with self-locking wheel differentials. |
Final drives | ![]() |
Final drives (which represent a gear reduction gear, designed to increase the torque on the wheels) are mounted on all wheels of the snowbaths. |
Propeller and its drive | ![]() |
To maximally effectively overcome the water obstacles by the snowbaths, a propeller with a mechanical drive from the snowmobile engine is optionally installed. While traveling on water, the propeller descends from the transport position to the working one by means of a pneumatic drive controlled from the cab. |
Suspension of all wheels of snowbaths BME is independent, on cylindrical springs with hydraulic shock absorbers. The suspension levers are attached to the frame via the silent blocks. The stroke of the levers is limited by stops.
Pneumatic system
The pneumatic system of the snowbaths performs the following functions:- parking brake control;
- raising and lowering the propeller;
- ensuring the operation of the automated tire inflation system.
Tire inflation system
The system allows you to adjust the pressure in one or more selected tires simultaneously.
Having lowered the pressure in the tires, it is possible to increase the contact spot with the surface, and, consequently, lower the pressure on the ground, and thus increase the permeability on light-bearing soils. High pressure is more suitable for driving on a hard surface.

The tire pressure is displayed on the display. Within the operating range of 0.1 to 0.5 atmospheres, the wheel is displayed in green, otherwise in red. It should be remembered that exceeding of the specified pressure range in the tire can lead to its destruction.
Using the pumping system, it is also possible to supply air for external consumption, for example, for swapping tires of another vehicle, or for swapping a wheel of an snowbaths if the pneumatic highway leading to the wheel is damaged.
Electrical system
The electric system of the snowbaths is powered by an on-board network with a nominal voltage of 12V DC. The main parts of the electrical system are interconnected by a system communication line, including + 12V and 0V power lines, as well as a three-wire interface CAN bus, through which state data of individual parts of the system and the necessary control actions are transmitted.LCD display
The display shows the information necessary to manage and maintain the snowbaths.

Backup start unit
The backup start unit is required to start the snowbaths if the LCD display does not light up when the "mass" is switched on and the state of the electrical system does not allow starting the engine normally using the ignition switch and controls. The emergency start of the engine by the backup start unit is possible when the starter, motor and battery are in good condition.
Winch
Thanks to the electric motor of small power, the consumption of electric current is significantly reduced. The winch is equipped with a modern hermetic block of solenoids, the mechanical part of the winch and its electric motor are additionally protected from moisture, water and dirt.
The winch is also equipped with an ergonomic rubber wire control panel.

Driver's seat

The correct seat prevents rapid fatigue of the driver, the front seats of the driver and the passenger have closer / further adjustments from the control panel, folding the backrest and adjusting their tilt. Headrests are also adjustable in height.
Control Panel,
seat of driver and passenger

Snowbaths has 2 rows of seats: the driver's and passenger's seats in the first row, four passenger seats -in the second. Seating on the second row of seats is carried out through the front doors with the folded backs of the front seats. Backrests and a double pillow of rear seats are removable, which allows, if necessary, to increase the area of the luggage compartment.
Rear passenger seats

Ventilation and heating

For interior heating, the coolant of the engine cooling system is used, which passes through the radiator of the heater and heats the air passing through this radiator.
The amount of heat entering the interior of the snowbaths is adjusted from the instrument panel by the fan speed switch and the heater temperature adjustment lever.
Glove compartment

In the body of the swamp-going vehicle, there are glove compartments which are located in the front panel, side doors, the bottom of the body (provide additional buoyancy of the snowbaths), the rear of the body above the wheel arches and under the side rear seats.
Luggage compartment

Access to the luggage compartment is via the back door of the snowblower.
Taking into account the operating conditions, the floor in the luggage compartment is designed in such a way that the cleaning of the snowbaths salon could be made by spraying the floor with water from a hose that will freely flow through the open rear door.
Rear Seat Layout
If necessary, the luggage compartment is transformed into two berths using the backs of the rear passenger seats.
