Conveniently Located Servicing Points
Simplified Daily Maintenance
The engine cover can slide up and down for quick servicing even in confined space. No more swing-open cover that obstructs maintenance and servicing jobs.

Uses Tracks Promoting Easy Mud Removal
The X-beam track frame is smooth for mud removal. This shortens machine washing time and reduces disposal costs, too.

The full-open cover provides direct access to exposed devices inside for easy maintenance. The cab can be tilted up for easy inspection and servicing. (In daily maintenance, there is no need for cab tilting-up.) Split hydraulic hoses are used for quick replacement.
*When using the floor tilt mechanism, consult your nearest Hitachi dealer. If bolts are removed or installed by unauthorized personnel, non-conformity to ROPS may occur.


Easy to Repair Steel Cover
A steel cover is utilized for tough operation, allowing easy repair if damaged. The steel cover is durable, recyclable and economical.


Finned Radiator and Oil Cooler for Effective Cooling
The radiator and oil cooler, made of rust-resistant aluminum, are integrated with wavy fins for effective cooling. Fins are easy to clean and hard to be packed with dirt.

Easy-to-Maintain Grease Bath Type Swing Gear
The grease bath type swing gear extends lubricating intervals up to 500 hours for easy maintenance.
Hydraulic Oil Circulation Type Swing Reduction Gear
The swing reduction gear is a hydraulic oil circulation type that does not need cumbersome gear oil change. Long-life hydraulic oil extends replacement interval up to 2000 hours.
Comprehensive Safety Features
Pilot-Control Shut-Off Lever
All operations-front, swing, travel and blade-can be shut off by locking the pilot control shut-off valve. This effectively prevents accidental lever control.

Neutral Engine Start System
The engine can start only when the pilot control shut-off lever is locked. This is called the neutral engine start system. This eliminates unexpected lurching when the engine suddenly starts when touching the control lever unconsciously.
Swing/Travel Parking Brakes (Standard)
The swing parking brake and travel parking brake are both provided standard for enhanced safety.
ROPS/TOPS Cab and Canopy
Both canopy and cab conform to the latest ROPS (ISO 3471), TOPS (ISO 12117), and OPG top guard (level 1) standards. The seat belt protects the operator as well. The operator's cab and canopy, complying with the international standards, are mounted to protect the operator in the case of tipping.
ROPS (Roll-Over Protection Structure) for protection of the operator held by seat belt in the case of rolling-over
TOPS (Tip-Over Protection Structure) for operator protection in the case of tipping-over
OPG (Operator Protective Guards) for operator protection against falling objects

Illustrated is ROPS/OPG cab (with top guard).
