HITACHI CONSTRUCTION MACHINERY

The ZAXIS-3 series meet customer demands for simplified maintenance. Regular maintenance is the key for keeping equipment in top condition, which can help to prevent costly downtime. In addition, a regular serviced machine has higher residual value. There are many service features to be found on the ZAXIS-3 series.

Conveniently located inspection points

Wide doors give access, from ground level, to the fuel filter, water separator and
engine oil filter. A large handrail, steps and anti-skid plates lead to the engine cover. The engine oil pan is fitted with a drain coupler. When draining, an associated drain hose is connected to the drain coupler. The drain coupler is reliable, avoiding oil leakage and vandalism. The fresh air filter for the air conditioner is relocated to cab door side from conventional location behind the operator seat. This allows easy cleaning and replacement of the fresh air filter, like the air circulation filter inside the cab.

Parallel arrangement of the cooling pack

The oil cooler, radiator and intercooler are laid out in a parallel arrangement, instead of the conventional in-line arrangement. This parallel arrangement is significantly easier to clean around the engine. The air conditioner condenser can be opened for easy cleaning of the condenser and the radiator located behind.

Extended oil and filter change intervals

The oil and filter change intervals have been extended considerably, reducing maintenance time and expenses. Engine oil consumption is lower. Hydraulic oil can be used up to 5 000 hours.
