Hydraulic Cylinders

More Production with Less Fuel

Achieving Low Fuel Consumption and a Large Workload  

The improved HIOS IV system helps reducing hydraulic loss. The fine-tuned spool and additional solenoid valves reduce the amount of hydraulic oil returned to the tank, in this way increasing efficiency.

More Improvements in Fuel Consumption (P to PWR) -10%

Increased Lifting Capacity +7%

Power Boost

When more digging force is needed, pressing the right button on the control lever will increase digging force by 6% for up to eight seconds.

High Quality and Durability

Enhanced Engine Reliability and Durability

The new engine, which is designed for use in harsh operating environment, is highly durable thanks to a fundamental review of the fuel and cooling systems.

Blade Cylinder Full Cover  

The cover to protect the blade cylinder is larger. There is also a structure that conforms to the top and bottom of the blade to protect the blade cylinder

Reinforced Outrigger Cylinder Cover

The cover is reinforced to protect cylinder against damage.

Strong D-section Skirt

The upper structure frame is reinforced with the D-section skirt increase rigidity against damage by obstacles.

Improved Durability of Front Attachment

The boom top and foot are reinforced with thickened high-tensile steel brackets, which incorporate steel bushings to enhance durability. The arm-bucket joint is protected by WC thermal spraying on its contact surfaces to reduce wear and jolt. The HN bushings, utilized on joint pins, retain grease inside for longer greasing intervals.

Pre-cleaner for Extending Filter Life

The pre-cleaner is used in dusty environments. Collected dust is discharged automatically, reducing the frequency of filter cleaning and extending filter life.

No Compromise on Operator Comfort

Large, Easy-to-Use Multifunctional Screen

Machine Conditions and Settings All Displayed on the Multifunctional Monitor. The new multi-language, multifunction monitoring system comprises a 7-inch high-resolution color monitor and a multifunctional controller. The monitor allows the operator to check varying operating variables: hydraulic oil temperature, fuel level, work mode, full-auto air conditioner, AM/FM radio, rear view.

Open Footwell

Open footwell under the monitor. The seat will also slide a long distance providing a comfortable operation environment compared to ZX-3

1. Seat slide range lengthened by 30 mm. Backwards: total slide length is 350 mm

2. Console slide range lengthened by 40 mm forwards

3. Legroom widened by 45 mm

Comfortable Operating Environment  

You’ll feel comfortable and confident, with plenty of leg space and excellent visibility when operating in the cab. The new compact console gives more leg space. The new door pillar is shifted rearward by 70 mm to widen an entry space for easy access. A new LED room light, interlocked with the door, turns on when the door opens. The front window is easily removed and stored overhead using slide rails. The overhead window is openable for ventilation. Ample air conditioner vents are located strategically for uniform air circulation inside the cab.

The control panel and control levers are arranged within easy reach of the operator. AM/FM radio and AUX port (optional) for a mobile music player are available for a long work day with less fatigue. All these designs focus on operator comfort

Improved Right Front Visibility

The layout of the right front upper structure was dramatically changed. Also, the shape of the cover was changed dramatically for better visibility on the right front side and the area by right front tire.

Comfort-Designed Operator Seat

The luxury cloth seat is fitted with a headrest and arm rests for operator comfort. The seat can be adjusted in multiple ways, sliding and reclining, to suit operator’s size and preferences. The seat can slide rearward by 40 mm more for added leg space 

Focused on Safety

The Large, Multifunctional Color LCD Monitor, Does Not Obscure Visibility

Color monitor has the same size as the pillar in the right front portion of the cab, so as not to block the operator’s view.

Rear View Monitor with Improved Visibility

ZX-5’s rear view camera has a broadened visual range, so that the operator can see the area right below the counterweight. Moreover, it is possible to view both the operation status icons and the rear view monitor display simultaneously, without the hassle of having to switch between displays

Improved Visibility and Ease of Entry

Left-side visibility and ease of entry are improved by moving the door pillar to the back.

Side-View Monitor Camera

The side-view camera and monitor are provided as optional equipment for safer operation in confined jobsites

Simplified Maintenance

The Multifunctional Monitor Helps during Maintenance  

Each time the key switch is turned, the multifunctional monitor indicates the replacement timing of hydraulic oil and the fuel filters, according to the schedule preset by the user. Scheduled maintenance helps to prevent the machine from breaking down

Bottom Cover for Fuel Tank Cleaning  

The fuel tank is equipped with a bottom cover, allowing for easy cleaning of the inside of the tank.

Conveniently Located Inspection Points  

For convenience of inspection and replacement, the filters and separator are accessible from the ground and are concentrated in the pump room, allowing for one-side maintenance
