Versatility is a key feature of Hitachi’s wheeled excavators

 

Versatility is a key feature of Hitachi’s latest ZXW7 wheeled excavator models. These short-tail swing ZX135W-7, ZX175W-7 and ZX220W-7 are said to be able to handle a wide variety of applications. Attachments can be transported with the optional trailer package, and can be changed easily using the attachment support system. All three models can be equipped with two-piece booms to further boost versatility.

The innovative HIOS hydraulic system increases front speed and achieves high levels of productivity, while low fuel consumption helps to reduce running costs. The all-new ECO gauge also helps to control fuel efficiency.

The smallest model, the ZX135W-7, has the same engine as the larger ZX155W-7 and a compact 360° swing radius for use in confined spaces. The ZX175W-7 also has a high digging force and lifting capacity, boosting productivity.

The wheeled excavators benefit from low noise levels and less vibration in the cab than the previous models. The view of the working area is maximised by large windows and the firm’s novel Aerial Angle camera system.
