Hitachi Construction Machinery Americas Inc. - ZX380LC-6 Excavators

At Hitachi, we don’t get sidetracked building every kind of construction equipment. Instead, we build excavators. It’s that kind of focus, combined with our legacy of innovative technology, that results in highly efficient, reliable and durable machines — the ZX380LC-6 is no exception.

When it comes to smooth responsiveness and multifunction capability, Dash-6 Excavators don’t disappoint. Our HIOS III hydraulic system perfectly balances engine performance with hydraulic flow. 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.

The ZX380LC-6 provides power and finesse for big productivity on any job. Take your pick of three work modes to fit the task. High Productivity (HP) delivers more power and faster hydraulic response. Power (P) delivers a balance of power and speed, plus fuel economy for normal operation. Economy (E) maximizes fuel efficiency while delivering an enhanced level of productivity. 

Features & Benefits

Monitor

A refined, multifunction LCD monitor employs a rotary control that makes it quick and simple to tap into a wealth of performance and convenience functions and features.

Visibility

Unsurpassed visibility, ergonomically placed low-effort joysticks, a highly efficient HVAC system, plus other features allow operators to be safe and efficient.

DURABILITY

D-channel side frames house and protect the highly efficient coolers and FT4/Stage IV Isuzu diesel engine. Toughness is built into the heavy-duty undercarriage, digging structures, and hydraulic and electrical components.

Engine

The EPA Final Tier 4/EU Stage IV Isuzu engine delivers fuel-efficient, powerful performance.

Hydraulics

The HIOS III hydraulic system perfectly balances engine performance with hydraulic flow. Its hydraulic boost system and enhanced boom recirculation generate aggressive boom and arm speed.

Bulkheads

Welded bulkheads within the boom resist torsional stress, and tungsten carbide thermal-coated arm surfaces and oil-impregnated bushings further increase durability.

Handrails

Upperstructure handrails provide added safety, and a larger hood provides better engine accessibility.

Minimal downtime

Easy-to-check sight gauges and fluid reservoirs, quick-change remote-mounted filters, and convenient fluid-sample ports minimize downtime for periodic maintenance.

EFFICIENCY

Grouped service points including single-side ground-level filters make quick work of the daily routine. An easily accessible battery disconnect switch extends battery life.
