Rippa R18 PRO
The R18 PRO is where the range starts to feel like a contractor's tool. It weighs 1,818 kg, runs a Kubota D902 and digs 2,420 mm, the deepest of the 1 to 2 tonne machines. Tracks span 989 to 1,309 mm. Hydraulic flow supports a breaker and an auger properly, and the extra mass lets it cut Hills gravel rather than bounce off it.
