RIPPA R13 PRO Compact Excavator: Technical Specifications & Performance Overview

The RIPPA R13 PRO is engineered as an ultra-compact excavator that masterfully balances accessibility with stability. Featuring a variable undercarriage and a minimal rear swing radius, it is purpose-built for navigating and operating within tight spaces such as narrow alleys, building interiors, and congested urban work sites, offering both power and precision where larger machines cannot go.

Key Specifications

Performance & Design Features

1. Unmatched Accessibility with Rear Small Swing
The R13 PRO boasts a minimal rear swing radius of only 506mm and a rear overhang of just 60mm when turning. This "small swing" design allows the machine to rotate safely and efficiently right next to walls and obstacles, making it ideal for interior demolition, trenching near foundations, and landscaping in confined yards.

2. Variable Undercarriage for Adaptability
It features a variable-width track system that can be hydraulically extended or retracted. In the retracted position, it achieves an ultra-narrow width to pass through gates and doorways. When extended, it provides a significantly wider, more stable stance for demanding digging and lifting tasks.

3. Operator-Focused Controls and Safety
The front-mounted control levers create ample legroom and a comfortable operating posture. An engine neutral start safety lever prevents unintended activation. The cabin is protected by a ROPS-certified structure and a robust steel mesh canopy that guards against falling objects.

4. Durability and Functional Design
Key components are built for longevity. The rear-mounted boom cylinder is protected from bucket impacts during heavy loading. The split dozer hose design allows for easy replacement if damaged. A dedicated towing hook and lower plate lifting ports are integrated for recovery and transport flexibility.

5. Enhanced Serviceability
Maintenance is simplified by the full-opening rear hood, which provides excellent access to the engine compartment for daily checks. Frequently serviced points are strategically placed for easy access, supporting minimal downtime.
