In this video, I take an in-depth look at the Rippa RL06 articulated telescopic loader. We cover the machine’s features, controls, measurements, lift capacity, reach, operation, and real-world capabilities. I put the RL06 through several lift tests, load handling demonstrations, and practical tasks to see how it compares to a mini skid steer.
The RL06 combines articulated steering with a telescopic boom, giving it capabilities that are very different from most compact loaders. But is it enough to replace a mini skid steer for property owners, landscapers, contractors, and acreage owners?
Watch the full review to see what it can do and where its strengths and limitations become apparent.
