- Kubota Engine
Kubota Engine: A dual-cylinder Japanese, water-cooled engine for long-term reliability and smooth performance.
- Wide Swing
Wide Swing: A wide 70° swing boom angle in both directions makes excavating in narrow spaces more efficient.
- Tight Access
Tight Access: At only 750mm wide, the R06 can even fit through regular home doors.
About the product
The R06 is targeted at users who need tight access or have tight budgets. It focuses on shallow trenching and light property maintenance with precise control, easy transport, and easy storage. While the situation above most commonly applies to first-time owners, the R06 can be valuable for more experienced users, especially when door access is critical, as it is only 750mm wide and can fit through standard personnel doors. For ultra-narrow access requiring more power, our R13 is suitable.
Many 0.6-1T micro-excavators will use generic single-cylinder air-cooled engines. Our R06 is equipped with a Kubota Z482, a dual-cylinder liquid-cooled engine that provides significantly more power, reliability, and makes the machine smoother and quieter to operate. Kubota engines are also world-standard industrial engines. You can walk into almost any Kubota tractor dealership globally to buy oil filters, air filters, or fuel injectors.
