ZW 330-5 Hitachi ZW 330-5 Specifications & Technical Data (2013—2016)

Quick and easy service access

The redesigned engine cover provides easy access to inspection points and allows for quick maintenance at ground level.

Comfort

The new ZW330-5 wheel loader has been designed with a clear understanding of the importance of operator comfort. After consulting our customers on their requirements, Hitachi engineers have made several adjustments to the cab to create a more spacious working environment that offers greater visibility of the job site. They have also incorporated a variety of functional and user-friendly features that are intended to help you get your work done easily and comfortably, so that you feel less tired at the end of the day.

Space for storage

Working long shifts means that you can spend most of your day in the cab of the ZW-5 wheel loader. Hitachi has incorporated several practical features to make you feel more at home. There is a large space for a lunch box to be placed behind or at the side of the seat. The cab also has a large cool box, which is cooled by the air conditioner, with enough storage space for four cans or bottles. The cab also has a drinks holder, designed to hold a 1.5-litre bottle.

Advanced technology

The new ZW-5 wheel loader range is built around advanced technology that has been developed by Hitachi over several decades. This has enabled us to create high-quality construction equipment that is capable of exceeding previous levels of performance and productivity, and the ZW330-5 is no exception. It is equipped with many new features designed to reduce its environmental burden and lower fuel consumption, while boosting its impact on productivity levels on the job site.

Easy access

Hitachi has introduced a range of time-saving features on the new ZW-5 wheel loaders, which are designed to make life easier for you on the job site. Many of the covers on the machine can be opened fully so you can access maintenance points quickly and easily on a daily basis. Many features – such as the greasing points, oil levels and the fuel filters – can be accessed at ground level. Using the technology within the multi-function LCD monitor you can set the routine service schedule to help prevent breakdowns each time the ignition switch is turned on.

Easy cleaning

Quick and easy routine maintenance is essential for you to achieve high levels of productivity on the job site. The new Hitachi ZW wheel loaders are capable of working for longer thanks to convenient features, such as the automatic reversible cooling fan. The fan allows for easy cleaning of the radiator with its one-minute automatic reverse rotation every 30 operating minutes. In moderate working conditions, this can be manually operated for cleaning as necessary. Dust from the radiator can be easily cleared through the slide opening of the oil cooler.

Advanced technology

The quick power switch boosts the power of the ZW-5 wheel loader when required by changing the work mode.

Lower fuel costs

The new ZW-5 wheel loader can work in two modes, which provide an appropriate level of performance for a particular job. One is for regular operations with the benefit of efficient fuel consumption; the other is for more demanding tasks and increases productivity. The optional auto-engine shutdown function avoids fuel wastage while the machine is long idling.

Powerful engine

The 12.9-litre six-cylinder water-cooled turbo engine enables a powerful digging performance, impressive travel speeds and benefits from excellent fuel consumption.

Simple work mode

The new ZW-5 wheel loader can operate in two modes to ensure lower fuel consumption and maximise productivity: Standard mode is for regular duties such as loading materials; and P mode is chosen for more demanding tasks such as heavy duty digging. In Standard mode, the engine speed is controlled, which allows for smooth and efficient acceleration during loading, regular operations and travelling on level terrain. Fuel consumption is reduced by up to 10%, enhancing its environmentally friendly performance. The P mode is useful when greater traction force is required for heavy-duty excavation and travelling uphill. By fully utilising the engine’s capability, it allows for powerful digging and a quick ascent up gradual slopes.

Power Train

Automatic transmission with load sensing system. Clutch cut position switch. Differential TPD (Torque Proportioning Differential, front and rear). LSD (Limited Slip Differential, front and rear). DSS (Down Shift Switch). Forward/Reverse lever. Forward/Reverse selector switch. Power mode switch. Quick power switch. Travel mode selector (Auto1-Auto2).

High productivity

A new hydraulic circuit facilitates the combined operation of the bucket and lift arm for loading and prioritises use of the bucket for loading work.

Electrical System

Backup alarm. Batteries Standard batteries (120AH-760A). Large capacity batteries (155AH-900A). Battery disconnect switch. Engine auto shut-down control system. Immobilizer key. 12V power outlet.

Sustainable operation

A muffler filter captures air pollutants, which are automatically burnt thanks to an oxidation catalyst and exhaust temperature control.

Spacious cab

The heated air-suspension seat can slide further back, providing more legroom. The tilting telescopic pop-up steering column has also been repositioned to create additional space.

Monitoring System

Gauge: coolant temperature, fuel. Indicator lights: clearance lights, control lever lock, fuel level, high beam, parking brake, preheat, turn signals, work lights. Indicator on multifunction monitor: air conditioner display, brake oil pressure gauge, clock, clutch cut off indicator, dual lift arm auto leveler, ECO indicator, fan reverse indicator, F-N-R/Shift position, forward/reverse selector switch indicator, hold display, hour meter, muffler filter, odometer, power mode indicator, ride control indicator, seat belt, speedometer, tachometer, transmission auto-shifting indicator, transmission oil temperature. Warning lights: air filter restriction, brake oil low pressure, communication system error, discharge warning, engine oil low pressure, engine warning, hydraulic oil level, low steering oil pressure, overheat, transmission warning.

Enhanced manoeuvrability

The manoeuvrability of the ZW-5 wheel loader series has been enhanced by automatic gearshift controls. The Auto 1 option automatically shifts between first and fourth gears, depending on the load, when second to fourth gears have been engaged. The Auto 2 option automatically shifts between second and fourth gears, relative to the load. The operator can also change gear manually using the Down Shift Switch, if required, to suit the terrain on any job site. Additionally, the ZW-5 series is equipped with a ride control feature that reduces vibration while the wheel loader is travelling on rough ground or snow. In auto mode, it turns on and off automatically while the wheel loader is in operation.
