Highline Manufacturing unveils the next-generation RP 800 with unmatched visibility, capacity, and performance

Highline Manufacturing recently introduced the RP 800, the next evolution in rock picking technology. Built tough and engineered for speed, visibility, and durability, the RP 800 is designed to help producers clear fields faster and more efficiently than ever before.

At the heart of the RP 800 is a revolutionary Guided Reel system. Unlike traditional designs, this reel uses bogie wheels that follow a precision track, keeping the reel parallel to the ground. This ensures rocks are pulled toward the apron—not pushed into the soil—resulting in cleaner, more efficient collection and consistent bucket loading.

With an 80-inch picking width and unobstructed visibility ahead of the reel, operators can work with confidence and precision.

Every tine, plate, and panel has been engineered for strength and easy maintenance, making the RP 800 as reliable as it is powerful.

More Capacity, Fewer Stops
The RP 800 features a 5.4 yd³ bucket volume, significantly reducing the number of dump trips required. Its patented adjustable dump height, reaching up to 9.5 feet, makes rock trailer loading effortless.

The apron and bucket are designed to keep dirt flowing through, minimizing downtime and maximizing productivity.

Built for the Long Haul
Durability is a cornerstone of the RP 800’s design. Reversible heavy-duty reel bats with an improved tensioning system ensure long-lasting performance. Wide 550/45-22.5 flotation tires protect your fields while keeping you moving, even in challenging terrain.

Smarter Engineering for Smarter Farming
With more capacity, better visibility, stronger components, and smarter engineering, the RP 800 is the ultimate tool for clearing rocks quickly and efficiently.

Whether you're managing large acreages or tackling tough terrain, the RP 800 delivers performance you can count on.
