Offering exceptional levels of performance without compromising on efficiency, Hitachi ZW-6 wheel loaders are designed to satisfy the requirements of the North American construction industry. Designed to be reliable, durable and versatile for a variety of job sites, and to operate with low levels of fuel consumption, they incorporate the highquality engineering for which Hitachi is renowned.

First for Reliability: Renowned for reliability, Hitachi ZW-6 wheel loaders achieve exceptional levels of performance and efficiency with minimum downtime. The ZW120-6/ZW140-6/ ZW150-6/ZW150PL-6 have been designed with several user-friendly features that ensure quick and easy maintenance, and also contribute to lower running costs.

• Minimal downtime: The battery compartment can be accessed easily for maintenance and battery replacement. This results in minimal downtime and a high level of accessibility.
• Quick access: The side engine cover opens fully for convenient access. This helps to ensure routine maintenance is completed quickly to ensure a reliable performance.
• Improved fuel efficiency: The ZW-6 demonstrates greater fuel efficiency than the previous model during V-shape loading and load and carry operations. This results in considerable savings for running costs.
• Easy maintenance: For safer and easier maintenance, the battery disconnect switch is now standard. This helps to avoid electrical accidents and retain battery energy during long-term storage.
• Reduced cost: The new Tier 4 Final certified engine does not require a diesel particulate filter, which further reduces fuel consumption and maintenance costs.

Dedicated to Durability: Strengthened components, robust materials and additional reinforcement for key features ensure the durability. They also contribute to its reliable operation, particularly when working in challenging environments.

• Added protection: The optional belly guard protects the machine powertrain and driveshaft from potential damage caused by materials on the ground.
• Strengthened components: Heavy-duty axles, designed in-house, have been incorporated into the design to improve durability.
• Durable materials: High-quality radiators improve resistance to corrosion and enhance the overall durability.
• Maximum uptime: Standard anti-clogging radiators (WPFR) are designed with square-shaped instead of triangular-shaped fins to prevent clogging. This reduces radiators maintenance frequency

Incredible Versatility: ZW-6 wheel loaders are often described as a perfect fit by Hitachi customers, which illustrates their versatility for a wide range of applications and job sites. In addition, they are smooth and efficient to operate, and offer increased productivity and greater fuel efficiency.

• Efficient flexibility: The quick power switch increases engine output when more power is instantly required, or when driving uphill.
• Enhanced rear visibility: The muffler and air intake have been repositioned and aligned to improve the rear-view visibility from the cab, enhancing safety on a variety of job sites.
• High efficiency: When working in snowy, slippery or muddy conditions, the traction control system helps to avoid tire slippage, and ultimately prevents wear and fuel waste, and lowers running costs. It is highly effective for light applications.
• Parallel lift arm: The ZW150PL-6 provides parallel movement from ground level. Perfect for loading and unloading items with increased load control.
• Superior performance: The rimpull control system allows for a superior digging performance by striking a balance between rimpull and front digging force. Rimpull can be adjusted to varying degrees, depending on the work mode.

Industry-Leading Quality: To set industry-leading standards in terms of performance, reliability, comfort and safety, the ZW120/ZW140-6/ZW150-6/ZW150PL-6 have been built using components of the highest quality. Its clever design offers 360° visibility from the cab and ensures it is one of the quietest wheel loaders in its class.

• Reduced emission: A selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system injects urea into exhaust gas to reduce nitrous oxide from emissions. This cutting-edge technology not only helps the environment, but also complies with Tier 4 Final emission regulations.
• Easy access: The engine air filter has been relocated to the rear of the engine compartment, providing easier access at ground level for maintenance. The urea tank is also positioned for convenience.
• Excellent visibility: The 360° panoramic view of the spacious cab creates a comfortable working environment, and helps to increase safety and productivity. The optional rear-view camera also contributes to excellent allround visibility and safety on the job site.
• Improved comfort: Sound insulation has been improved in the cab to significantly reduce noise levels and provide a quieter working environment for operators. The low-noise engine also results in a quieter performance, which makes it suitable for working in urban areas.

Unique Technology: Advanced technology developed by Hitachi is at the heart of the ZW-6 wheel loaders. It has an impact on everything, from the wheel loader’s environmental performance to the comfort and safety of its operator. A technology-led approach enables Hitachi to meet the evolving needs of the construction industry, and improve the experience of its customers.

• Reduced maintenance: A new Tier 4 Final certified engine contains a high-volume cooled exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system, a common rail-type fuel injection system and a diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC). This helps to reduce fuel costs and maintenance requirements.
• Smaller environmental impact: The standard auto idle shutdown feature* helps to prevent fuel waste, as well as reduce noise levels, exhaust emissions and CO2 levels in the medium wheel loaders. *ZW140-6/ZW150-6/ZW150PL-6 only
• Optimum performance: The 1st speed select switch in combination with the creep mode switch* optimize the usage on different job sites and with hydraulic attachments. *ZW140-6/ZW150-6/ZW150PL-6 only
• Remote monitoring: Global e-Service allows the owners to monitor their Hitachi machines remotely via Owner’s Site (24/7 online access) and ConSite (an automatic monthly report). These help to maximize efficiency, minimize downtime and improve overall performance.
• Smooth operation: The ZW120-6, ZW140-6, and ZW150-6 are easy to maneuver thanks to the HST control system. The operator can choose between two work modes according to the task and terrain, and it enables a smooth transition between speeds.
