Mike from Rippa USA Sales gives a quick walkaround of a Rippa R18 mini excavator with a cab, just before it shipped to a customer in Alabama.

WHAT STANDS OUT

- The cab is very similar to the R15 cab, only on the bigger R18 frame.

- It has a small computer with a screen, like the R22 and R32, and a backup camera view.

- The door is built on one solid piece of bent steel, with a hook that catches the door and holds it open, like the R22 and R32.

- It also has a windshield wiper, mirrors and LED lights.

- Hydraulic oil and fuel are filled from the side compartment.

- Power comes from a Kubota D902 diesel engine.

COMFORT

There is a lot of room once you are inside. Mike is 6 foot 1 and about 250 lb and says he could sit in it all day. An air conditioner can be added, although space inside is tight.
