Who the R13 PRO suits
Owners who want a compact machine that feels smoother and quicker than the entry models — landscapers, fencing contractors and homeowners with regular jobs.
Best jobs for the R13 PRO
- Trenching for reticulation, drainage and cabling
- Post holes and footings with an auger
- Retaining wall and garden edging prep
- Light breaking with a hydraulic breaker
- Tidy-ups and levelling with the blade
Strengths
- 3-cylinder Kubota is smoother and quieter than 2-cylinder engines
- Dual-speed travel for faster moves around site
