• 91 kW engine: power above the 8-tonne class. The Rippa RB30 backhoe loader features the Yuchai YCD4J22T-125 engine rated at 91 kW, more powerful than competing models in the same weight class, which typically deliver 74–85 kW. This additional power of the Rippa RB30 backhoe loader means a higher loading capacity in fast cycles, better penetration in compact soils and the ability to operate high-demand hydraulic attachments (hydraulic hammer, compressor) without any loss of performance. An optional Cummins F3.8 or Yuchai Euro 5 engine is available for projects with specific emission requirements.

• 4×4 drive with 4-wheel steering and crab travel: the Rippa RB30 backhoe loader features full drive with steering on all 4 wheels and a side-travel mode in which all wheels turn in the same direction, allowing diagonal movement without additional manoeuvring. The Rippa RB30 backhoe loader accesses tight site areas, repositions precisely and works efficiently on wet clay, compacted snow or loose gravel, conditions in which a backhoe loader with single-axle drive loses its operating capability.

• 1,5 m³ front bucket and 2.800 kg load: upper-class parameters. The front bucket of the Rippa RB30 backhoe loader has a rated capacity of 1,5 m³ and a rated load of 2.800 kg, values characteristic of the 10–12 tonne class. On an 8-tonne Rippa RB30 backhoe loader, this larger capacity per cycle directly reduces the number of loading cycles per hour and increases productivity in works involving soil, gravel, sand and granular materials.

• 4.000 mm digging depth with optional telescopic boom to 5.000–5.500 mm: the Rippa RB30 backhoe loader digs to a standard depth of 4.000 mm, sufficient for the foundations of ground-plus-2-storey buildings, drainage channels and standard underground utilities. The telescopic boom option extends the depth of the Rippa RB30 backhoe loader to 5.000–5.500 mm for deep foundations, excavation below the groundwater table and works on collectors or main sewer channels.

• Air-conditioned cab, shock-absorbing seat and reversing camera: the Rippa RB30 backhoe loader equips the operator with a spacious cab featuring air conditioning and heating, an adjustable ergonomic seat with shock absorption, an intuitive control panel, a fully functional steering wheel, a reversing camera with video display and generous rear-view mirrors. Operator comfort over an 8–10 hour shift directly affects the precision and productivity of the Rippa RB30 backhoe loader on site.

• Rear boom with a reduced number of welded joints: the rear boom of the Rippa RB30 backhoe loader is designed with a reduced number of welded joints, lowering the risk of structural fatigue under intensive use. The hydraulic cylinders of the Rippa RB30 backhoe loader are made of high-strength steel, the piping is mechanically protected and accessible for quick inspection and maintenance in quarries and on intensive earthmoving sites.

• CE certification and RAR RNTR 7 type approval: the Rippa RB30 backhoe loader comes with CE certification and complete documentation for RAR type approval, the mandatory requirements for travel on public roads and participation in public procurement. The Rippa RB30 backhoe loader can be added directly in SEAP/SICAP and is eligible for EU funding: PNRR, the Regional Programme, the Just Transition Programme. Leasing and credit options are available on the UZINEX credit and leasing page.

Applications: Rippa RB30 backhoe loader

Civil and industrial construction is the primary application of the Rippa RB30 backhoe loader. Excavations for the foundations of houses and industrial buildings, trenches for utility networks (water, sewerage, gas, optical fibre), levelling and ground preparation, and loading excavated material onto tipper trucks are all carried out with the Rippa RB30 backhoe loader without transferring to separate machines. The dual functionality (1,5 m³ front loader plus 0,3 m³ rear excavator) makes the Rippa RB30 backhoe loader the most versatile machine relative to its purchase cost in a construction contractor's fleet.

Earthmoving, landscaping and land-improvement works use the Rippa RB30 backhoe loader for levelling and shaping the ground, digging drainage channels, and forming terraces and cuttings. The 4×4 drive with 4-wheel steering makes the Rippa RB30 backhoe loader the suitable machine for difficult terrain with limited access or reduced grip, where single-drive machines cannot work efficiently.

Quarries, surface mines and material yards use the Rippa RB30 backhoe loader for loading sand, gravel, ballast and other granular materials. The 1,5 m³ front bucket capacity and the rated load of 2.800 kg ensure productivity suited to fast-cycle loading operations. The Rippa RB30 backhoe loader also covers hydrotechnical, port and railway construction works where a combination of loading and digging is required on variable terrain.
