Each Zahn power unit includes the engine, operator's console, and the articulation joint. The R230 is powered by a 23hp Kohler Petrol Engine and R300 by a 30hp Kohler Petrol Engine, which allows them to be both compact and powerful. They also have a unique InterChange connection that accepts up to seven types of front ends: trencher, vibratory plough, dumper, tiller, backhoe, stump grinder, and a tool carrier that can drive more than 40 quick-change attachments. The R150 2 Wheel Drive is essentially a dedicated trencher. The 2 Wheel Drive R230 and R300 accept two trencher front ends, while their 4 Wheel Drive counterparts accept all seven types of front ends—with more planned for the near future.
