Hitachi has been at the forefront of both Gate Turn

Off (GTO) and IGBT propulsion technology for over
30 years. Our GTO and IGBT systems are powering
Japan’s famous bullet trains as well as similar trains
throughout the world. Now, this IGBT expertise has
been channeled into these Hitachi AC-drive trucks.

Unlike all other competitors, the entire AC-drive

system is designed, built, and supported by the
same company — Hitachi.

The new-generation Hitachi IGBT system outperforms

previous and competitive systems through its simplicity,

HI-TECH ROPS/FOPS CAB

New HI-TECH ROPS/FOPS Cab ROPS complies with ISO3471 and SAE J1040-May 94, FOPS complies with ISO3449.
A three-point rubber ISO-mount arrangement to the high-arch cross member minimizes vibration transfer to the operator compartment.
New wider cab with double full-size seat available and enough trainer’s leg space brings comfortable operating and training.
Comfort and Ease of Operation
New wrap-around style dashboard means controls are within easy reach and visual contact. A full complement of easy-to-read automobile-type color Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) monitor and warning system,
a spacious environment, six-way adjustable operator’s air suspension seat, tilt/telescopic steering wheel, filtered adjustable air vents, all contribute to operator safety and comfort.
Monitoring System
A new Hitachi system monitor provides display information and diagnostics of all onboard systems and controls which include the engine and Hitachi AC drive. Data links offer complete integration, while a color
Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) clearly details machine functions. Downtime is minimized with faster and more reliable troubleshooting and analysis. A new Hitachi load monitoring system offers benefits such as better
equipment utilization on the jobsite, accurate unit and fleet production results, and benchmark unit statistics against fleet results. Cycle time, distance, and cycle count can all be measured and recorded as informa-
tion that can help in developing higher productivity. The Hitachi load monitoring system is fully integrated with the Hitachi vehicle monitoring system and display interface, avoiding potential failure or error common in
aftermarket systems.
Camera Monitoring System
Included as standard safety equipment, an analog monitor has been mounted to the dashboard to display live camera information of the rear and right front area.
Excellent Serviceability
A removable front cover of the cab allows easy access to the service brake valve and A/C filter. A removable cover located behind the seat provides easy access to the electric components, Hitachi controller, and all
electrical junction points.
SUSPENSION
Front Suspension
Independent trailing arms make up the front axle. NEOCON struts containing energy-absorbing gas and compressible NEOCON-ETM fluid are mounted between the trailing arms and frame. Inherent in the NEOCON
strut design is a variable damping and rebound feature.
Rear Suspension
“A” frame structure, integral with axle housing, links the drive axle to the frame at forward center point with pin and spherical bushing. A track rod provides lateral stability between the frame and drive axle. Heavy-
duty rear-mounted NEOCON struts containing energy-absorbing gas and compressible NEOCON-ETM fluid suspend the drive axle from the frame. Integral variable damping and rebound feature included.

FR AME
Full fabricated box-section main rails with section height tapered from rear to front. Narrow at the rear to support the load and wider at the front allowing truck stability and excellent engine access for servicing.
One-piece top and bottom flanges that eliminate cross member tie-in joints and provide a large exposed center area for access to major components. Large radii at frame junctions are blended and ground to
minimize stress concentrations. Weld joints are oriented longitudinally to the principal flow of stress for greater durability and more strength.
The new “bolt-on” High Arch Design requires less assembling time and no welding. The design provides higher structural quality and better serviceability during engine overhaul.

BODY
An extended canopy protects the service deck area. High tensile strength 400 BHN abrasion and impact resistant alloy steel is used for the plate indicated below:
Floor 16 mm (.6 in.)
Front 9 mm (.35 in.)
Sides 9 mm (.35 in.)
Canopy 6 mm (.2 in.)
Corners 12 mm (.47 in.)
High-strength 690 N/mm2 (100 000 psi) alloy steel is also used for the canopy side members and floor stiffeners. The body is rubber cushioned on the frame.
Optional Body Liners
Floor & Corners 12 mm (.47 in.)
Sides & Front 6 mm (.2 in.)
Canopy 6 mm (.2 in.)
Special plate thicknesses and partial plates are available.
