Rippa R06 Micro Excavator — Built For Places Other Machines Cannot Reach
The Rippa R06 is designed for one purpose:
making money on jobs other contractors turn down.
When access is tight, labor costs explode.
Doorways, narrow gates, indoor work, basements and crawl spaces normally require hours of manual digging. The R06 turns those jobs into fast machine work.
Powered by a dependable Kubota diesel engine and equipped with exceptionally smooth hydraulic control, this excavator is easy to operate even for first-time operators — yet precise enough for professional trenching around utilities.
This is not a toy machine.
It is a labor replacement tool.
1-year manufacturer’s parts warranty – Lifetime product support – Kubota engine backed by Kubota’s factory warranty
