2018 Hitachi Construction Machinery Construction / Production Excavators ZX380LC-6

Built to deliver unsurpassed efficiency, reliability, and durability, the ZX380LC-6 is armed with everything you need – and more. Loaded with a new, fuel-efficient EPA Final Tier 4 (FT4)/EU Stage IV Isuzu engine, this excavator meets rigid emission standards and no diesel particulate filter is needed. And that’s not all. You’ll get generous swing torque, dig force, and lift capacity. The spacious cab is designed for operator comfort and productivity, and standard upper-structure handrails provide added safety and accessibility.

The ZX380LC-6 comes standard equipped with five years of ZXLink™ Ultimate, giving you 24/7 online access to machine location, health, utilization, fuel consumption, and other valuable information – so you can better understand costs and jobsite performance.

Features may include:

• The Isuzu EPA Final Tier 4 (FT4)/EU Stage IV engine delivers fuel-efficient and reliable performance. Fuel pressure, timing, and volume are precisely regulated by electronic control for efficient combustion with Isuzu’s common-rail fuel injection system.

• The pressurized fuel system improves fuel injector operation, and the fuel recirculation system helps prevent fuel gelling in cold climates – so you can maintain maximum productivity.

• Auto-idle, which reduces engine speed when hydraulics aren’t in use, and auto-shutdown contribute to fuel efficiency.

• Thick-plate, single-sheet mainframe, box-section track frames and industry-exclusive, double-seal swing bearing deliver rock-solid durability.

• With large idlers, rollers, and strutted track links, the sealed and lubricated undercarriage is built for the long haul.

• Reinforced D-channel side frames provide maximum cab and component impact protection.

• Tungsten-carbide coated wear surfaces protect the critical bucket-to-arm joint.

• Oil-impregnated bushings enhance durability and extend lube intervals to 500 hours for the arm-and-boom joint and 100 hours for the bucket joint.

• Stay on schedule with generous swing torque, digging force, and lift capacity

• Multi-language LCD monitor and rotary dial provide intuitive access to machine info and functions. Just turn and tap to select work modes, monitor maintenance intervals, check diagnostic codes, and set cab temperature. Control oil flow and toggle between dig and thumb modes with a programmable thumb attachment mode.

• Ergonomically correct short-throw pilot levers provide smooth, precise control with less effort. Pushbuttons in the right lever allow control of auxiliary hydraulic flow for attachments. Optional sliding switch provides proportional speed control, giving you full command from your fingertips.

• It’s not always about brute force. Unmatched metering and smooth multifunction operation provide plenty of finesse and precision, too.
