Renault RS: the working version alongside the TX, 75 to 84 hp, three- and four-cylinder diesels, mechanically identical to the TX but plainer
Alongside the comfort-focused TX series, Renault Agriculture ran the RS series through the 1980s as a plainer working version sharing a comparable technical base but with reduced specification.

The register lists 10 live models, from the 103-12 RS to the 95-14 RS, built between 1983 and 1987. Output ranges from 44.2 to 68.4 kW, or 75 to 84 hp, weight from 2,927 to 4,980 kg, displacement from 3,117 to 4,156 cm3, across three- and four-cylinder engines.
Type designations sharing identical number codes with the TX series (such as 103-12) show that RS and TX were based on the same underlying models, differing chiefly in cab fitout and comfort details.
For budget-conscious operations, the RS series thus offered the same drivetrain and hydraulic technology as the TX at a more accessible entry price.
When buying a used RS series, the same points apply as for the mechanically identical TX: clutch and gearbox condition, the tightness of the lift hydraulics, and rust on cab and mudguards; since RS models with reduced specification were often used less gently than the more comfortable TX, it is worth checking the seat and trim of the simpler cab more closely. Parts have run through the Claas parts network since Renault Agriculture's dissolution. PTO and three-point hitch correspond in this power class to ISO 730 Category II, at 540 rpm.
