YOU’RE IN CONTROL

You’re at the heart of Hitachi’s design for its latest range of excavators. To continuously improve on previous generation machines we’ve focused on enhancing your experience in the cab as an operator.

We’ve considered the challenges you face as the owner of a successful business. And we’ve zoomed in on the ways in which we can support you over the life cycle of your machine. By putting you at the heart of the Zaxis-7 range, we invite you to take control – over your workspace and your fleet. And by working in partnership, we will help you to create your vision.

INCREASE YOUR SAFETY

Your ability to work safely is vital, not only for your own wellbeing, but also for the successful completion of any project. To protect yourself and your machine from potential hazards, the new Hitachi Zaxis-7 excavators give you a superior view of your surroundings, so you can see the job site from all angles.

The visibility you enjoy from the cab includes an exceptional 270-degree bird’s-eye view with the Aerial Angle® camera system. You can choose from six image options to view the machine’s immediate environment, which enables you to control your own safety – as well as that of those around you.

To help you to work more confidently and efficiently, even in the most challenging of conditions, Zaxis-7 excavators are fitted with some impressive new features. From the LED work lights and the windscreen wiper with an increased sweeping area, to the large reflective strips on the counterweight and roller sunshades, you’ll have the visibility you need when it matters most.

Attention to detail is also fundamental to a safe working environment – and the repositioning of the pilot shutoff lever is a perfect example. It is now within easy reach to prevent any unintentional actions.
