RT650 Packages Operator Convenience with Versatile Tools
The Vermeer hydrostatic RT650 gives contractors, utilities and municipalities the maneuverability of a riding trencher combined with the cutting power to penetrate tough surfaces. For added comfort, the operator’s station rotates 90 degrees allowing the operator to select five different positions. The attachment controls rotate with the operator keeping them within easy reach at all times. The RT650 also features automotive-style steering, a servo-controlled ground-drive system and standard planetary axles.
A 76 HP (57 kw) F4L2011 Deutz engine powers the utility trencher/plow designed for cable, water, gas, electric and irrigation installations. It offers a 58” (147 cm) wheel base and radial-piston hydraulic motors on all trencher attachments. Capable of trenching depths to 60” (152 cm), the RT650 can trench widths up to 16” (41 cm). For enhanced safety, if the operator attempts to leave the seat with the attachment or ground drive engaged, an Operator Presence System automatically shuts down the machine.
For greater ease of operation and higher productivity, all attachment controls on the RT650 trencher’s operator station are located within easy reach on the right side of the tractor. In addition, the RT650’s exclusive forward/reverse ground-drive foot pedal with patented creep override leaves the operator's hands free to control its many versatile tools.
The RT650’s attachment options include a center-mounted trencher, hydraulic sliding offset trencher, vibratory plow and backhoe. A joystick control featuring a float position for a four or six way backfill blade allows for smooth backdragging and finish work. Standard backhoe remote controls permit the operator to precisely reposition the machine without leaving the backhoe operator’s station.
A 20-gallon hydraulic fluid tank increases oil dwell time, which allows for more efficient oil cooling and longer component life. The RT650’s tight turning radius with steerable rear axle provides excellent maneuverability in confined work areas.
