Hitachi LX 40 features overview

Small Body. Big Performance.

The LX has power for tough job sites. The design has the operator comfort in mind. It is equipped with the new 2-mode HST system to boost productivity. This new model also offers enhanced safety features and ease of maintenance. It is environment friendly.


Safety

A sealed internal wet-disc brake system is used to provide sure braking, even on wet and muddy surfaces. This type of brake system also has low wear, so there is less maintenance.


Maintenance

The engine compartment can be easily opened and closed on both canopy and cab-equipped models. Plenty of access for efficient inspections and maintenance.


Engine / Powertrain / Drivetrain

Electric Parking Brake Switch

The parking brake is engaged automatically when the engine is turned off. The electric parking brake switch helps prevent travel with parking brake on.


Hydraulic system

Solenoid fuel feed pump

Equipped with an automatic air bleeder system. Simply turn the starter switch on to operate. Air is removed when the fuel is cut off, which also helps for easier restarting.


Bucket and Ground Engaging Tools
