Hitachi Construction Machinery's ZAXIS-7 compact excavators - the ZX75US-7 and ZX85USB-7 - have been enthusiastically embraced by, and are right at home with, Australian operators.
-
Hitachi Construction Machinery (Australia) Pty Ltd (HCA) unveiled two new ZAXIS-7 compact excavators last year, each designed to enhance productivity in contemporary urban construction sites.
The ZX75US-7 boasts an ultrashort tail-swing radius, enabling easy access to tight spaces, while the ZX85USB-7, equipped with a swing boom, efficiently excavates near walls and guard rails.
Reaction and acceptance from industry has been strong - nearly as strong as the ZAXIS-7s themselves.
