HIOS II Hydraulic System

The HIOS II hydraulic system elicits more user satisfaction than other models on the
market due to its greater operator comfort and ease of operability.
Our ZAXIS-3 model not only adopts this technology but also improves it, adding
several enhancements over previous models. It offers a balance between the
operability of the front attachment arm and its manoeuvring speed, resulting in an
improved capacity to handle combined operations with maximum stability during
excavation.

A New Standard in Operator Comfort
The operator's seat of the ZAXIS-3 series gives the operator
an excellent view of the jobsite.
Ample legroom, short stroke levers and a large seat ensure
optimum working conditions for the operator during long
hours.

The ZAXIS-3 series cab has been

redesigned to meet demands of
customers. From the operator’s seat
the operator has an excellent view of
the jobsite. On the widescreen color
LCD monitor the operator can see
machine conditions and with the rear
view camera (optional), what is behind
the machine. Ample legroom, short
stroke levers and a comfortable seat
ensure optimum working conditions.
The seat features horizontal, vertical
adjustments and has a backrest
contoured for comfort, with a HITACHI
logo.

Wide adjustable armrests and a retractable seat belt are included. Short stroke levers
allow for continuous operation with less fatigue. Three switches on the lever (optional)
can be set to operate attachments other than buckets. The cab is pressurized to keep
out dust. Noise and vibrations are kept to a minimum due to the elastic mounts, filled
with silicone oil, the cab rests on.

Visibility is improved especially for the right downward view. Sliding windows on the
front and side enable direct communication between operator and other workers.
A flat floor allows for easy cleaning. Ergonomic controls and switches, fully automatic
air conditioner and a radio complete the package.

 
Embedded Information Technology
The ZAXIS-3 series is equipped with a widescreen color LCD
monitor with adjustable contrast for day and night shifts.
With the monitor the operator can check maintenance intervals,
select work modes, monitor fuel consumption, and connect
to the rear view camera (optional). A theft deterrent system and
multi-language selection is also available.

The new HN bushings, containing “solid molybdenum-based lubricant”, are

utilized at the boom-arm joint and arm cylinder mounting area for better lubrication
and higher durability. (At other joints, conventional HN bushings are also utilized.)

Simplified Maintenance Conveniently located inspection points

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.

Wide doors give access, from ground level, to the fuel filter, water separator and The large handrail, steps and anti-skid
