Giant-Sized Productivity Based on Hitachi's Theory of Evolution. Each Hitachi generation listens to the needs of the work site and gives birth to an even-better new generation. Powerful Engines— Ready for the task. Time-proven Cummins diesel engines produce a total of 2 X 1 119 kW (2 X 1 500 HP) for handling the big excavation jobs. • 2 X 1 119 kW (2 X 1 500 HP) Emission Control Engines— Helping to protect our environment. Conform to U.S. EPA Tier II emission regulations. Efficient E-P Control— Adjusts power output to the work being performed. Hitachi's computer-aided Engine-Pump Control...

More Than Durable Just Plain Tough Built-in toughness means the Hitachi will continue to get giant-sized jobs done fast. Rigid Box Design— Resists bending and twisting forces. High-Mounted Compact Travel Motors and Optional Travel Motor Guard— Help to boost durability at rugged work sites. Computer-assisted analysis was used to check that the frame box can withstand heavy-duty excavation work. This design helps protect the travel motors from damage by rocks. Center Track Frame— More strength for this key area. Integral The center cast track frame of steel integral cast steel structure can...

Constant-Cab-Comfort Air Conditioner— Keeps the cab pressurized to keep out dust while maintaining comfortable temperature. Intelligent Multi-Display Monitor—Provides machine data and operating status at a glance. The operator can monitor machine conditions and operating status with a 10.5-inch color LCD. The controller provides instant fault diagnosis through all sensors, displaying warnings and countermeasures if failure arises. Major Functions: Designed to Offer Comfort and Intelligence Comfortable operator space and simplified maintenance, backed by Hitachi technologies and experience....
