- Host of The Dirt and equipment operator Bryan Furnace got some seat time recently in Hitachi’s new 25-ton ZX210LC-6 HP, soon after it arrived in the U.S.
The excavator is one of three models from Japan, marking Hitachi’s first new excavators for the U.S. market since it ended its 33-year joint manufacturing and marketing agreement with John Deere in February.
In this episode of The Dirt, Furnace tests out the excavator on camera in some Georgia clay and rates its performance. He also outlines some of the ways the machine is different from predecessors made under the Deere agreement.
His overall assessment: It’s a “sneaky beast” - much faster and more powerful than it seems when you’re operating it, thanks to Hitachi’s engineers.
To watch Furnace’s test run and his review of Hitachi’s new ZX210LC-6 HP, check out this week’s episode of The Dirt.
Some background on the ZX210LC-6 HP:
Hitachi says the new excavator offers best-in-class power and speed. The cab is also designed to be quiet and roomy.
The excavator runs on a 163.6-horsepower Isuzu 4-cylinder engine. It has a max dig reach of 32 feet 7 inches, and max dig depth of 27 feet 11 inches.
Features include a TRIAS II hydraulic system with three pumps supplying oil to the actuators to reduce fuel consumption and deliver precise flow for better attachment control, and an arm recirculation cancellation system that increases speed when rolling the arm in when working with lighter loads.

HITACHI is always top notch
it's actually faster than the volvo 220e. Hitachi has always being great at the hydraulics
best hydraulics ever made
Thank you so much for Demo of the HITACHI
210. The automatic light shut down. WOW safety. Glad to see HITCH, come out with NEW Equipment, with all the separation from JD. Hope they get great Yards, on there own in USA.
I would definitely love to try this machine. I've always been a fan of Hitachi excavators. I had 1 issue with them years ago and haven't run one since. They had an issue with the steel in their booms . The main boom would break at the middle where they welded it together. So, because of this I bought Volvo. Have nothing but good things to say about Volvo equipment. Just wish they made a bulldozer. I would have bought that too.
But, to get back to Hitachi . I always thought of Hitachi as great equipment and would really love to demo this machine. A picture or video can make anything look good.
Like we say in the equipment world.
You can put lipstick on a pig but it's still a pig .
Thanks,
Rick
