Hitachi Reduced-Tail-Swing Excavator ZX85USB-5

Engine

• The Yanmar engine is EPA Final Tier 4 (FT4)/EU Stage IV certified and delivers fuel-efficient and reliable performance.

• Auto-idle automatically reduces engine speed when hydraulics aren’t in use. Auto-shutdown further preserves fuel.

Durable structure and undercarriage

• Box-section track frames, thick-plate single-sheet mainframe, superior ground clearance and industry-exclusive double-seal swing bearing deliver rock-solid durability.

• With large idlers, rollers, and strutted links, the sealed and lubricated undercarriage delivers long, reliable performance.

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

• 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.

Hydraulics

• Generous flow, arm force, and swing torque help speed cycles and keep you productive and on schedule.

• The hydraulic boost system and enhanced boom recirculation generate aggressive boom and arm speed – returning the arm to dig faster, so you can move more dirt in a day.

• Complete factory-installed standard auxiliary hydraulics with proportional control help improve productivity on the jobsite.

Simple controls

• Multi-language LCD monitor and rotary dial provide access to a wealth of info and functions. Just dial and tap to check diagnostic codes, monitor maintenance intervals, set cab temperature, make simple attachment hydraulic flow adjustments, plus more, depending on machine.

• Automatic, high-velocity bi-level climate-control system with automotive-style adjustable louvers help keep the glass clear, the cab comfortable and the operator productive.

• Ergonomically correct short-throw pilot levers provide smooth, precise fingertip control with less movement or effort. Standard sliding switch provides proportional speed control, giving you full command from your fingertips.

Comfortable cab

• Low-effort joysticks, a highly efficient HVAC system, and plenty of storage space maximize comfort and convenience.

• A comfortable, mechanical suspension fabric-covered high-back seat provides plenty of travel, sliding together or independent of the joystick console. For even more support and comfort, a heated air suspension seat is available.

• Easy-to-navigate LCD monitor tracks various fluid levels and issues scheduled maintenance alerts and diagnostic information.

Easy to maintain

• Wider service doors and easy-access service points make quick work of daily and periodic maintenance.

• LCD monitor tracks scheduled maintenance and reminders. Should a problem arise, it provides diagnostic codes to assist in troubleshooting.

• Vertical spin-on fuel filters are positioned in the right rear compartment for simplified ground-level servicing.

• Grouped service points make quick work of the daily routine. Easy-to-check sight gauges and fluid reservoirs, quick-change remote mounted vertical filters, and extended engine and hydraulic oil-service intervals minimize downtime for periodic maintenance.

• The addition of a diesel particulate filter (DPF) and a diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) reduce particulate matter and NOx. DPF cleaning happens automatically without impacting machine productivity.

• Left rear compartment houses the battery, engine air filter, freshair
  cab filter and side-by-side coolers.
