I agree that preojct manager manages schedule, however project manager also manages cost, scope, quality
The project managger responsibility is to manage Schedule cost and implementation of quality codes.
The project schedule is one of the main components of four main nodes of the project management. The other main nodes are Scope, Cost, and Quality.
Apart from this, the other integral parts of project management are communication, resource management, risk management, stakeholders management, constraints, slippages maintenance etc.
As per PMBOK Guide, Fifth Edition there are main knowledge areas which come under Project Management and every PM has to look after them.
Knowledge Areas:

1. Project Integration Management
2. Project Scope Management
3. Project Time Management
4. Project Cost Management
5. Project Quality Management

So from above, it is clearly evident that Project Schedule Management is only one of the component which Project Manager has to manage.
Operations managers plan, direct and coordinate the operations of an organization. The general operations manager is responsible for ensuring and improving the performance, productivity, efficiency and profitability of departmental and organizational operations through the provision of effective methods and strategies.
The main responsibility of project manager is to manage following,
1. Project Schedule
2. Project Quality &
3. Project Cost.
One should agree fully because PM is the only focal point and have all the project communications and can work around the project in managing the project schedule.
The primary job of project manager is "Integration Management" i.e. pulling all strings together. Every project operates under multiple constraints (Cost, Time, Scope, Resource). Small variation any of the constraints has direct impact on quality, which yields into increase in the Project Risks.
Project Manager must keep a regular check on project constraints. Anticipate what can go wrong, anticipate potential delays, slippages due to internal / external factors. Proactively radiate information to stakeholders.
