ZX300LC-6 Hitachi excavator specs & Dimensions (2016 - 2021)

Stronger boom

The brackets on the boom end and foot have been strengthened with HN bushings, and the resin thrust plates on the boom have been reinforced. These features have enhanced the front attachment’s durable characteristics.

Building a Better Future

Established in 1910, Hitachi, Ltd. was built upon a founding philosophy of making a positive contribution to society through technology. This is still the inspiration behind the Hitachi group’s reliable solutions that answer today’s challenges and help to create a better world. Hitachi, Ltd. is now one of the world’s largest corporations, with a vast range of innovative products and services. These have been created to challenge convention, improve social infrastructure and contribute to a sustainable society.

Improved fuel circuit

Providing protection against moisture, the prefilter has an integrated high-performance water separator and cold fuel resistance valve. A large capacity electric fuel pump also supplies an appropriate amount of fuel to the engine for improved performance.

The Epitome of Versatility

The range of Zaxis-6 medium excavators has been designed by Hitachi engineers in response to the diverse demands from customers in the European construction industry. The ZX300LC-6 is suitable for a wide range of applications, providing a powerful performance, smooth and user-friendly operation, and high levels of productivity.

High productivity

The ZX300LC-6 has increased productivity by 14% in PWR mode and by 15% in ECO mode in comparison to the ZX290LC-5. The six-cylinder Stage IV-compliant 186kW engine gives the ZX300LC-6 the highest output in its class.

Reduced emissions

The ZX300LC-6 employs a variable geometry turbocharger and high volume-cooled exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system. These help to reduce levels of nitrogen oxide and other pollutants, and therefore helps the environment.

Excellent cooling and low-noise performance

The upper structure of the ZX300LC-6 benefits from high-quality sealant (around the cooling package) and acoustic materials to eliminate any deterioration caused by heat. These ensure the machine’s long-term cooling and low-noise acoustic performance.

The power of technology

Hitachi uses advanced technology to manufacture high-quality construction machinery. Making use of the latest developments, it can provide a complete range of solutions to solve the issues faced by customers and meet the ever-changing needs of the industry. The ZX300LC-6 is the latest result of this advanced technological approach.

Smaller environmental impact

The auto shutdown feature helps to prevent fuel wastage, as well as reduce noise levels, exhaust emissions and CO2 levels of the ZX300LC-6 medium excavator, reducing its environmental impact.

Fewer oil leaks

The design of the hydraulic return pipes incorporates a rubber hose fitted with a flange. This helps to reduce the risk of oil leaks and enhances the overall reliability of the system.

Durable material

Oil leaks can be prevented by the O-rings on the control valve and swing motor, which are made from highly durable fluorine. It can withstand high oil temperatures.

Easier installation

Two extra spools in the control valve increases versatility by making it easier to install attachments that require multiple, large volumes of oil and on two-piece boom models.

Cutting fuel costs

TRIAS II technology decreases hydraulic loss. The amount of hydraulic oil returned to the tank is reduced due to the cooperative control of the pump and valve.

Less wear and tear

Track guards have been enlarged and the lower roller has been reconfigured so that mud falls out easily to prevent clogging and any subsequent damage to the oil seals.

Easy access

Routine maintenance can be carried out quickly with easy access to the engine compartment and other components provided by the convenient and wide-opening engine cover.

Effective cooling

To prevent engine parts from overheating, the expansion tank has been mounted on top of the cooling system, so that air can be completely removed.

Greater flexibility

The rotary tilt and tilt modes are included within the attachment support system on the ZX300LC-6. These and nine other modes can be registered on the monitor for the easy fitment of attachments to increase versatility.

Superior comfort

A fully adjustable seat, spacious cab, ergonomic controls and advanced music system all contribute to a comfortable working environment for operators of the ZX300LC-6.

At-a-glance updates

Operators can check the machine’s status and settings quickly and easily on the seven-inch multi-function LCD monitor. It has multi-lingual support in up to 32 languages.

Reinforced motor cover

The 8mm-thick travel motor cover on the ZX300LC-6 is almost double that of the previous model (4.5mm). Bolts have been positioned to minimise damage.

User-friendly

A versatile feature suitable for daily maintenance, the optional front guard can be opened – with a simple one-touch mechanism and the aid of a gas damper – either to a small extent or up to 90 degrees.

Improved visibility

The view from the cab has been improved by fewer and smaller bars on the optional front guard, which helps to minimise blind spots.
