Overview
Made for the way British contractors actually work.
The R319 sits in the 1.1-tonne class between our sub-tonne R10 and full 1.3-tonne R13. Canopy-style operator station, folding blade and quick-coupler hydraulics — sized for hire fleets and landscapers who want a slightly stronger sub-1.5T machine without stepping up in transport weight.
It occupies the exact spot in the range where hire customers ask 'do you have anything between the 1-tonner and the 1.5?' The R319 is that answer.
Ashmoors specifies, inspects and prepares this machine for the UK market, supplies it and remains responsible for its UK warranty, parts, servicing and technical support. It is manufactured by RIPPA under its original model code.

Where the R319 earns its keep.

Between-class positioning
Sized specifically for the gap between sub-tonne and 1.5-tonne machines. Right choice when the R10 is too light and the R15 is too much.
02
Hire-fleet spec
Simple controls, robust bodywork and easy daily service access — designed for machines that get handed to different operators every week.
03
Built for British sites
Hoses, seals and electrics specified for wet winters and long days. Proven Kubota, Yanmar or Cummins power on many models, with sensible service intervals.
04
Ashmoors UK support
Ashmoors remains your UK point of contact for warranty, servicing, parts and technical support throughout ownership.
Compatible attachments
One machine, endless jobs.

FAQs
Questions we hear a lot.
Not seeing yours? Request a callback — discuss the job directly with our UK team.
What engine is fitted to the R319?+
The Ashmoors R319 Mini Excavator is fitted with a Kubota D722 water-cooled diesel, as published in the manufacturer's specification. The full specification table on this page lists every confirmed figure for the machine.
What does the R319 weigh, and can it be towed in the UK?+
The R319 is quoted at 1,100 kg. Add the tare weight of your plant trailer, typically 700-800 kg for a braked 3.5-tonne trailer, to get the towed weight, then check that total against your trailer plate, your towing vehicle's limits and your licence entitlement before travelling. Machines above roughly 8 tonnes are delivered by low-loader instead.
How deep does the R319 dig?+
Maximum digging depth for the R319 is 1,563 mm. If your job has a fixed depth requirement — drainage runs, foundations or service trenches — tell us the depth and we will confirm whether this machine reaches it or point you to the next class up.
Will the R319 fit through tight access?+
Transport width for the R319 is 917 mm (fits a standard 36in gateway). Measure the narrowest point on the route in — gates, alleyways, doorways — and allow clearance for the operator. We will confirm whether this machine passes or recommend a narrower model.
What warranty does the R319 come with?+
Every R319 comes with a 12-month parts warranty, with warranty claims handled for you in the UK by Ashmoors. The engine also carries the engine manufacturer's own warranty, and extended cover can be quoted on request. Full terms are confirmed in writing with your order.
How quickly can the R319 be delivered?+
Machines are held in stock in the UK. Mainland UK delivery is typically 3–5 working days from cleared payment, fully insured, and we confirm a delivery day with you in advance. Highlands, islands and Northern Ireland are arranged on request.
Are spare parts held in the UK?+
Contact Ashmoors with the R319 serial number and required part. We will confirm compatibility, availability and delivery before you order.
Can I finance the R319?+
Finance options may include hire purchase and finance lease through UK-regulated funders. Terms and monthly figures depend on the machine, deposit, term and applicant status.
Do I need a CPCS ticket to operate this machine?+
Operator ticketing requirements depend on the site, insurance and duty. For most domestic and light-commercial work the R319 does not legally require CPCS, but many hire firms and main contractors will still require an appropriate ticket. Speak to your site's health & safety lead.
What attachments fit the R319?+
General purpose bucket, Trenching bucket, Grading bucket, Hydraulic breaker — plus most common auxiliary-hydraulic attachments sized for the class.
Where can I compare the R319 against other mini excavators?+
Every machine in the Mini Excavators range is listed at /machinery/mini-excavators. Call us and we'll walk you through the spec differences against the closest alternatives — we'd rather sell you the right machine than the biggest one.
Do you sell used mini excavators?+
Our listed range is new machinery. Contact the Ashmoors team to ask about current availability.
