New Hitachi ZX95W-7 wheeled excavator
In response to the growing need for versatile equipment to work in narrow spaces or restrictive areas, Hitachi Construction Machinery (Europe) NV (HCME) has launched its smallest wheeled excavator, the ZX95W-7. Compact, agile, and with impressive lifting capacity, it is an ideal solution for urban job sites. Like all Hitachi Zaxis-7 wheeled excavators, the newcomer to the range has been designed to help owners and operators control their profitability, comfort, safety and uptime.
The ZX95W-7’s compact size and short turning radius allow it to work efficiently and safely in confined areas, particularly in the vicinity of pedestrians and road users, says Hitachi. Adding the 2-piece boom, in combination with the swing boom, makes it a perfect match at every job site.
The ZX95W-7 is said to be exceptionally manoeuvrable thanks to the 4-wheel steering and offers excellent lifting capacity to deliver high levels of productivity. Versatility is also enhanced when used with a tilt-rotator and S-type couplers for attachments. Stability is provided by the blade positioned on the rear of the undercarriage, and by the optional independently operating outriggers on both left and right sides.
Enhanced comfort and increased safety
The cab is the perfect working environment for operators. Ultra-spacious, it offers the ultimate in comfort and quality. Easy operation comes from the intuitive controls, which are within easy reach, and the small steering wheel. The cab also offers a superior view of the job site to protect operators and the machine from potential hazards. Visibility is boosted by the rear-view camera.
Easy access to the engine compartment ensures checks and inspections can be carried out quickly and conveniently. The machine’s standard configuration includes air conditioning, air suspension seat with heater and electric fuel feed pump. Downtime is minimised by the priority given to easy maintenance and cleaning, with features such as the fenders protecting the upper structure from dirt.
