2005 - 2023 HITACHI LX150 SUPER WHEEL LOADER

Technical Description

The Hitachi LX150 Super is a versatile wheeled articulated loader engineered for demanding material handling applications. Powered by a John Deere 6076A turbocharged diesel engine, it delivers 170 horsepower at 2200 RPM with a robust 580.5 lb-ft of torque, providing exceptional productivity on job sites. The loader features a spacious 3.8 cubic yard heaped bucket capacity with a commanding 37,430.7 lb breakout force, enabling efficient loading and material movement. Measuring 26.2 feet in length with bucket on ground and 9.1 feet wide, the LX150 Super maintains excellent maneuverability with a 21.2-foot turning radius and 26-degree rear axle oscillation. Its articulated design allows 40-degree articulation in either direction, combined with a 9.2-foot maximum dump clearance at full raise, facilitating versatile dumping operations. The power-shift transmission offers responsive performance with four forward and three reverse gears, reaching maximum speeds of 21.5 mph forward and 13.7 mph reverse. Hydraulic efficiency is paramount, with a 69.5 gallon-per-minute pump delivering 3,000 psi relief pressure for rapid cycle times—1.8 seconds dump, 6.2 seconds raise, and 3.5 seconds lower. Operating at 35,400 pounds, the loader maintains excellent weight distribution and stability. Fuel capacity of 75.1 gallons and comprehensive fluid systems—including 30.4 gallons of hydraulic fluid—ensure extended operational range with minimal downtime, making this loader ideal for construction, quarrying, and aggregate applications.
