Product Advantages

1. Triple-Agility Design for Confined Urban Work

360° true zero-tail swing enables safe rotation in tight urban spaces. Hydraulic retractable undercarriage shrinks to 990mm to fit 1-meter gates and extends for stable digging. Boom side swing (62° Left / 53° Right) makes foundation trenching effortless. Double cast iron counterweights lower the machine's center of gravity and prevent tipping during heavy load swinging.

2. Advanced Hydraulic System

It adopts variable plunger pump and load-sensing valve system. The system intelligently balances flow and pressure, supporting smooth simultaneous 3-function movements and high-precision digging.

3. Hidden 2-Speed Travel Mastery

Hidden high/low speed travel motors protect core components from debris. It provides rapid site mobility at 2.2 km/h and 4.5 km/h, alongside powerful climbing performance.

4. Stable Piston Swing & Enhanced Safety

Piston swing motor outputs high-torque rotation and smooth braking. Pilot safety lock can instantly lock all functions by lifting the console, effectively preventing accidental operation.

5. Quick Attachment Change

Equipped with quick coupler for fast switching between buckets, breakers and augers. The RT18 can be instantly converted to handle multiple types of site tasks.
