Following the recent introduction of two battery-powered RT compact wheeled loaders, Kubota (UK) has widened the range with the introduction of an additional 10 models, powered by Kubota diesels.
The extended portfolio includes high-lift and heavy lift specifications, with a range of tipping loads that extends from 550kg up to 1,600kg. Lift heights extend from 2.17m up to 2.96m, while operating weights are from 1,100kg up to 2,900kg. Depending on the model, cab or canopy options are available, with ROPS and FOPS protection.
Compact dimensions are a feature of the RT range, with the narrowest model, the entry-level RT100-2, measuring 920 mm wide. The RT105T-2 features a telescopic boom, increasing its working envelope. The widest model is the range-topping RT280-2, at 1.4m with 31×15.5-15 tyres. Overall height is up to 2.34m, reducing to below 2m when using the folding canopy.
