High-Efficiency Hydraulics: Smooth, responsive, and powerful. Hitachi’s hydraulic system is tuned for precision digging and fast cycle times—ideal for tight sites where every second counts.
Durable Build Quality: Each machine features a reinforced boom and arm, cast-iron swing post, and high-tensile steel construction. These are minis that take a beating and keep digging.
Zero/Short Tail Swing: Most models in the range feature zero or short tail swing designs for confident operation in confined spaces without sacrificing reach or breakout force.
Comfort Meets Control: Spacious, ergonomic cabs with low noise levels, air conditioning (model-dependent), intuitive controls, and excellent visibility reduce fatigue and increase productivity on long days.
Maintenance Made Simple: Easy-access service points, durable components, and onboard diagnostics help keep downtime low and servicing fast—so you can stay on the job, not in the workshop.
