ZW100-6 Hitachi ZW100-6 Specifications & Technical Data (2022—2026)

First for reliability

Renowned for reliability, Hitachi ZW-6 wheel loaders achieve exceptional levels of performance and efficiency with minimum downtime. The ZW100-6 and ZW120-6 have been designed with several user-friendly features that ensure quick and easy maintenance, and also contribute to lower running costs.

Minimal downtime

The battery compartment can be accessed easily for maintenance and battery replacement. This results in minimal downtime and a high level of accessibility.

Quick access

The side engine cover opens fully for convenient access. This helps to ensure routine maintenance is completed quickly to ensure a reliable performance.

Improved fuel efficiency

The ZW-6 demonstrates greater fuel efficiency than the previous model during V-shape loading and load and carry operations. This results in considerable savings for running costs.

Easy maintenance

For safer and easier maintenance, the battery disconnect switch is now standard. This helps to avoid electrical accidents and retain battery energy during long-term storage.

Dedicated to durability

Strengthened components, robust materials and additional reinforcement for key features ensure the durability. They also contribute to its reliable operation, particularly when working in challenging environments.

Incredible Versatility

ZW-6 wheel loaders are often described as a perfect fit by Hitachi customers, which illustrates their versatility for a wide range of applications and job sites. In addition, they are smooth and efficient to operate, and offer increased productivity and greater fuel efficiency.

Easy access

The engine air filter has been relocated to the rear of the engine compartment, providing easier access at ground level for maintenance. The urea tank is also positioned for convenience.

Smooth operation

The ZW100-6 and ZW120-6 are easy to maneuver thanks to the HST control system. The operator can choose between two work modes according to the task and terrain, and it enables a smooth transition between speeds.

Reduced cost

The new Tier 4 Final certified engine does not require a diesel particulate filter, which further reduces fuel consumption and maintenance costs.

Reduced maintenance

A new Tier 4 Final certified engine contains a high-volume cooled exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system, a common rail-type fuel injection system and a diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC). This helps to reduce fuel costs and maintenance requirements.

Maximum uptime

Standard cooling cores are designed with wide spaced square-shaped fins, instead of triangular-shaped fins to resist clogging. This reduces cooling cores maintenance.

No compromise

Offering exceptional levels of performance without compromising on efficiency, Hitachi ZW-6 wheel loaders are designed to satisfy the requirements of the North American construction industry. Designed to be reliable, durable and versatile for a variety of job sites, and to operate with low levels of fuel consumption, they incorporate the high-quality engineering for which Hitachi is renowned.

Enhanced rear visibility

The muffler and air intake have been repositioned and aligned to improve the rear-view visibility from the cab, enhancing safety on a variety of job sites.

Industry-leading quality

To set industry-leading standards in terms of performance, reliability, comfort and safety, the ZW100-6 and ZW120-6 have been built using components of the highest quality. Its clever design offers 360° visibility from the cab and ensures it is one of the quietest wheel loaders in its class.

Excellent visibility

The 360° panoramic view of the spacious cab creates a comfortable working environment, and helps to increase safety and productivity. The optional rear-view camera also contributes to excellent all-round visibility and safety on the job site.

Improved comfort

Sound insulation has been improved in the cab to significantly reduce noise levels and provide a quieter working environment for operators. The low-noise engine also results in a quieter performance, which makes it suitable for working in urban areas.

Unique technology

Advanced technology developed by Hitachi is at the heart of the ZW-6 wheel loaders. It has an impact on everything, from the wheel loader’s environmental performance to the comfort and safety of its operator. A technology-led approach enables Hitachi to meet the evolving needs of the construction industry, and improve the experience of its customers.

Smaller environmental impact

The standard auto idle shutdown feature helps to prevent fuel waste, as well as reduce noise levels, exhaust emissions and CO2 levels in the medium wheel loaders.
