Rippa RD 06

The RD 06 is a tracked dumper designed for moving materials on small building sites and on ground where wheeled machines get bogged down. With a passing width under one metre, it goes through yard gates, along concrete paths and between existing buildings, while the tracks give it traction on mud, gravel or slopes.

It tips hydraulically, which means unloading is done in one movement, with no physical effort. One load of the RD 06 replaces a whole line of wheelbarrows, and the operator does not tire after a few hours — a real advantage when pouring concrete, removing rubble and soil from an excavation or carrying gravel along a path under construction.

The petrol engine starts easily and needs no complicated maintenance infrastructure: refuelling at any filling station, consumption under 1.2 litres per hour and readily available spare parts. The lever controls are intuitive, so a new worker can be trained in a few minutes.

It is aimed at small construction firms, landscaping crews and farms in Moldova that move materials over short distances every day and cannot justify a large machine. It is transported on an ordinary trailer, so it can be moved between sites without the cost of oversize transport.
