THE EPITOME
OF VERSATILITY
The range of Zaxis-6 medium excavators has been designed by Hitachi
engineers in response to the diverse demands from customers in the
European construction industry. The ZX300LC-6 is suitable for a wide range
of applications, providing a powerful performance, smooth and user-friendly
operation, and high levels of productivity.
Improved visibility
The view from the cab has been improved by
fewer and smaller bars on the optional front
guard, which helps to minimise blind spots. Two tilt modes add to the versatility of the
