HITACHI ZX240LC-3 CRAWLER EXCAVATOR

The Hitachi ZX240LC-3 is a mid-sized hydraulic excavator engineered for demanding construction and earthmoving applications. This machine features a robust turbocharged, intercooled engine delivering 177 horsepower at 2,000 RPM, with a displacement of 317 cubic inches, providing the power necessary for sustained productivity on job sites. The excavator operates at a net weight of 54,654 pounds, offering substantial stability and digging force while maintaining reasonable transportability. Two boom and stick configurations are available to suit varying project requirements. Option 1 achieves a maximum cutting height of 33.3 feet and digging depth of 22.5 feet, while Option 2 extends these capabilities to 34.6 feet cutting height and 24.6 feet digging depth, with maximum reach along ground reaching 35 feet. The 1.9 cubic yard bucket capacity accommodates efficient material handling across diverse excavation tasks. Dimensional specifications include a 10-foot cab height, 11.2-foot track width, and 12.6-foot ground contact length, enabling operation in confined spaces while maintaining low ground pressure of 5.4 PSI. The responsive hydraulic system features 118.4 GPM pump flow capacity and 4,980 PSI relief valve pressure, supporting smooth, precise diking and loading operations. The swing mechanism rotates at 13.5 RPM with a 9.7-foot tail swing radius, maximizing working efficiency in tight quarters. The undercarriage delivers 49,920 pounds of drawbar pull through dual carrier rollers and nine track rollers per side, with 51 shoes providing excellent ground traction and flotation characteristics. Operating specifications include a 132.1-gallon fuel capacity, 63.5-gallon hydraulic system reservoir, and comprehensive auxiliary systems supporting extended operational demands on diverse construction projects.
