Hitachi Construction Machinery

Built on the foundation of superb technological capabilities, Hitachi Construction Machinery is committed to providing leading-edge solutions and services to contribute as a reliable partner to the business of customers worldwide.


Engine

More Production with Less Fuel. Meeting Two Competing Needs

Hitachi fuel-saving technology is more evolved than ever. The electronically controlled engine can curb fuel consumption behind the electronic governor, clutch fan, and isochronous control, which is one of fuel-saving technologies that can automatically control engine rpm through the electronic governor. This can suppress wasteful engine speed increase when big output is not needed, leading to less fuel consumption.


Engine Performance at High Altitudes

The new engine is designed to increase its maximum torque to keep running without speed drop at high altitudes with thin air and in hot summer season. At its maximum torque, the speed is kept low to ensure stable performance even under heavy loads.


Hydraulic and electronic system

Full-Auto Air Conditioner (Standard)

The full-auto air conditioner can keep preset in-cab temperatures by blowing fresh air. Air flow and outlets are adjusted automatically. Bi-level air flow makes it possible to warm leg space and cool head space simultaneously.


CRES Cab

The CRES cab is reinforced with high-rigidity steel tubes at corners that increase strength and rigidity for higher safety.


Cab

Cooling Efficiency

Even at high temperatures in summer or in continuous long hours operation, the ZX70 can lessen overheating, as cooling efficiency increases: heat balance is up 4% in engine coolant, and up 12% in hydraulic oil, compared to the conventional.


Operator Comfort

The new fingertip-control pilot lever reduces operator fatigue in long hours operation. This pilot lever resembles the one proven on the ZX200 in the larger class.


Comfortable Operating Environment

The cab is improved to enhance operator comfort and controllability. The monitor panel is positioned for easy reading from the operator. Twin analog meters are easy to read operating status. The simple-to-control switch panel is within easy reach. The comfortable vinyl-wrapped operator seat is provided with a headrest and armrests, and is precisely adjustable to operator’s build. It can be reclined and its roller support provides comfort.


Neutral Engine Start System

The pilot control shut-off lever is provided with a neutral engine start system that permits engine starting only when the pilot control shut-off lever is in Lock position.


Equipment

Reinforced Bucket (Optional)

The flat bottom type bucket protects its welds with wear plate. The 0.28 m3 reinforced bucket is provided optional with reinforcing plates at its bottom.


Fuel Double-Filters (Standard)

Fuel double-filters are utilized in a fuel line from fuel tank to engine to avoid plugging. Also, a solenoid fuel pump is provided standard to release air if water is mixed in fuel or fuel runs out.


Dust-Proof Indoor Net

The radiator is provided with a detachable dust protective net at its front to avoid dust entry. The net is made of three-split type for easy, quick servicing. An air nozzle port at the radiator top facilitates cleaning.


Easy-to-Clean Big Fuel Tank

The fuel tank has the ample capacity of 135 liters. Its inlet is sealed with a keyed cap for water proof type. At the bottom of the fuel tank a drain cock, which serves to easily discharge contaminants inside, and a bolted cleaning port for easy opening and cleaning.


Battery Disconnect Switch (Optional)

This battery disconnect switch is provided to avoid battery discharging and protect harnesses when the machine is not in use in winter or in long-term storage.
