2004-2006 HITACHI LX450-7 WHEEL LOADER

The Hitachi LX450-7 is a heavy-duty wheel loader designed for high performance and durability in demanding construction and mining applications. It features a powerful 6-cylinder S6A3-Y2TAA1 turbocharged engine delivering 444 hp at 2050 rpm, enabling robust operation and efficient fuel use. The loader’s bucket has a heaped capacity of 7.5 cubic yards (5 m³) and a breakout force of 89,923.6 lbs (40,789 kg), with a bucket width of 13.3 ft (4 m), ideal for large material handling. Its hydraulic system includes a gear-type pump with a flow capacity of 94.9 gal/min (356 l/min), providing a raise time of 8.5 seconds and dump time of 2.3 seconds for effective cycle times. Dimensions include a length of 37 ft (11 m) with the bucket on the ground, a width over tires of 12.2 ft (4 m), and a height to the top of the cab of 13.9 ft (4 m). The loader maintains ground clearance of 1.7 ft (0.5 m) and a wheelbase of 13.5 ft (4 m). The operating weight is approximately 101,920 lbs (46,230 kg), supporting stability and traction. The drivetrain features a solenoid full powershift planetary transmission with 4 forward and 4 reverse gears, offering a maximum forward speed of 20.6 mph (32 kph) and reverse speed of 21.2 mph (34 kph). Fuel capacity stands at 179.7 gallons (678 l) to match extended operations, while the hydraulic system fluid capacity is 74 gallons (280 liters). The LX450-7 combines size, power, and hydraulic efficiency to meet heavy material handling requirements reliably.
