HITACHI ZX210-6 CRAWLER EXCAVATOR

Technical Description

The Hitachi ZX210-6 is a medium-sized hydraulic excavator designed for robust digging and material handling applications. Powered by a turbocharged, air-to-air charge air-cooled 4HK1 engine delivering 160 hp (119 kW) at 2,000 rpm, the machine meets EPA Final Tier 4 emission standards and features a displacement of 316.8 cubic inches (5.19 L). It achieves an operating weight of approximately 47,245 lbs and has an off-level capacity of 70%, enabling operation on moderate slopes. The excavator’s hydraulic system utilizes pilot levers with short-stroke, low-effort controls, operating at 4,975 psi for implement pressure and 5,149 psi for travel circuits, powered by a 35.7 gpm hydraulic pump flow capacity. Performance capabilities include an arm digging force of 31,743 lbs (ISO) and bucket digging force of 35,520 lbs (ISO), providing strong breakout power. Maximum digging depth reaches 20.3 ft, with a maximum cutting height of 31.9 ft and a maximum reach along the ground of 30.4 ft. The machine boasts a boom/ stick minimum swing radius of 12.6 inches and a max dumping height of 22.5 ft, optimizing maneuverability and loading efficiency in confined spaces. Travel speeds range from 2.2 mph in low gear to 3.5 mph in high gear. The undercarriage features a track gauge of 7.3 ft with 46 shoes per side and hydraulic track adjustment, complemented by a drawbar pull of 45,636 lbs. The cab height is 9.8 ft with an overall height of 10.5 ft, facilitating operator comfort and site visibility. Fuel capacity totals 106.5 gallons, supporting extended operational cycles. This configuration makes the ZX210-6 a versatile and powerful choice for medium to large excavation projects.
