Get More Production The three-pump hydraulic system makes combined operations smooth. The new lownoise engine reduces environmental impact. The Hitachi minis go greener than previous model with plenty of power. The new engine boosts power and speed with less noise. The proven three-pump hydraulic system helps make combined operations smooth. The ZX18-3 has the retractable undercarriage in the range of 970 to 1 280 mm: retracted for job efciency in tight space, and extended for higher stability. Undercarriage: Blade:

Structures Getting Tougher The front attachment and rubber shoes are strengthened for higher durability. Reinforced Front Attachment The vertical pin of the swing post employs a large single pin for reducing backlash. Job-proven HN bushings are utilized at all pin joints in the front attachment and blade, extending lubricating intervals up to 500 hours. The boom cylinder guard is angled and ribbed to protect the boom cylinder from damage. Reinforced Rubber Shoes The new tread pattern provides greater durability. It uses short-pitch rubber crawler that is excellent in reducing the vibration caused...
