Rippa R06

The Rippa R06 ECO is a mini excavator designed for jobs where ordinary machines simply do not fit: inner courtyards, spaces between houses, basements, greenhouses, paths and service connection trenches. Narrower than a standard door, it drives in through the gate, does the work and leaves without demolishing anything on the way.

What makes the difference is the side-shifting, tilting boom, which lets you dig right up against a wall or into a corner without moving the machine dozens of times. Add to that the water-cooled Kubota Z482 diesel engine – a Japanese engine with readily available spare parts, low fuel consumption and low noise, in a Euro 5 / Stage V compliant version for the European market. The rubber tracks do not damage paving, lawns or poured screed.

It is the right machine for small construction and plumbing companies that install water and sewer connections, for landscaping work, and for households and farms where you dig fence foundations, tree pits or drainage ditches. It is transported on an ordinary car trailer, without special permits and without a flatbed truck.

If you are buying your first machine of your own, the R06 is the logical step after manual labour: low purchase and running costs, controls that are easy to learn and a margin of precision that matters more than brute force on fine work.
