Features

When equipped with the innovative quad track system, the RTX550 offers improved flotation, reduced surface damage, increased tractive effort and greater stability.

Key Features

An integrated system display allows the operator to easily monitor important machine functions, while the capability to monitor the percentage of hydrostatic capacity use is especially useful when training new operators.
The TrenchSense™ electronic control system can react faster than the operator to prevent engine stall/stop when difficult digging conditions are encountered. By eliminating the need to return controls to neutral and restart, productivity can be increased, and the whole sequence occurs within seconds.
Common controls across the RTX lineup help the operator become more efficient and productive.
The RTX550 is available in three ground drive configurations: a standard 31” (78.7 cm) tire option, a 35” (88.9 cm) tire option for enhanced flotation and quad tracks for reduced surface damage and increased tractive effort.
