3 Putting Technology To Work Features Specifics You’ll like the powerful Hitachi EX120. It is fast, extremely powerful for its size, and very responsive. The EX120 features the most advanced computerized horsepower and control system available: Hitachi’s exclusive Dash-5 system. This system is renowned for its smooth multi- function control. The proven Isuzu engine is perfectly matched to the hydraulic system for years of reliable and yet outstanding performance. • Isuzu A-4BG1T turbocharged, direct injection diesel engine is extremely fuel-efficient and reliable. It meets all EPA clean air requirements. • Dash-5 engine/hydraulic control with three power modes and four work modes. • Power modes: 1. Normal: Standard operation 2. H/P: Increased engine rpm and horsepower 3. E: Maximum fuel efficiency in light duty applications • Work modes: 1. General Purpose 2. Grading Mode 3. Precision Mode 4. Attachment Mode • Cab mounted on six fluid-filled, vibration dampening, shock absorbing mounts. • Compact travel motor design; protected piping reduces opportunity of damage. • The updated work modes provide power in the order of inherent priority to do the best job for the project at hand. The Hitachi EX120 has excellent multi- function features which allow multiple jobs such as travel, swing and boom raise all at the same time without any one function stopping. • The Super EX120, as with all Hitachi excavator models, is built to maximize performance, reliability, and operator comfort through optimum design and quality components. The Isuzu engine is matched to the hydraulic pumps for outstanding multiple function performance. The undercarriage, carbody, and front attachment are all balanced and designed for maximum strength. All of this means that your Hitachi EX120 will work economically and productively for years and for thousands of hours at minimum operating costs. 1. Low noise design eliminates high-pitch noise inside the cab. 2. Easy-maintenance HN bushings which are made of sintered composite iron alloy with high-viscosity lubricating oil. 3. Fresh-air type, large-capacity air conditioner standard. 4. Auto-lubrication system for ensured lubrication of boom and arm pins optionally available. 5. Hitachi’s original shockless valve and quick warm-up control system for engine and hydraulic oil means highly responsive controls immediately after start-up. 6. Round hydraulic tank provides superior circulation of the hydraulic oil so that it’s kept cleaner and cooler. 7. A rugged X-form center frame assures superb durability. 8. Super-strong hydraulic oil piping and hoses provide outstanding reliability and extremely clean machines. 9. All Hitachi excavators feature heavy-duty booms and arms reinforced with bulkheads for extra long life. V SUPER - Operating Travel Max.

5 Powertrain: Efficient, Powerful Economical Isuzu 81 hp Engine Is Dependable, Long-LastingThe Isuzu A-4BG1T engine is one of the most widely used, most proven and most dependable engines in the world. In the EX120, it is turbocharged. The 4-cylinder diesel features direct injection, a maximum torque of 231 lbf •ft (32 kgf •m), and a mechanical governor. It meets all EPA and CARB regulations for noise and pollution. Enhanced E-P Pump ControlA sophisticated micro-computer system guided by multiple actuators is standard on the EX120. Hitachi is renowned for the smooth operation of its excavators and this model is no exception. The newDash-5 controls provide quick, accurate response to multi-function swing-lift-bucket curl and travel operations. Enhanced Cooling ProtectionThe EX120 features a 4.9 U.S. gallon (18.4 liters) radiator coolant tank, a tightly fitting fan shroud and a high capacity fan. The radiator fins can easily be cleaned without tools and the coolant level can be checked from the ground during normal inspection.Outstanding Traction ForceThe traction force is an impressive 22,000 lbf (10,000 kgf) for excellent maneuvering through mud and over obstacles. New E-P Control System Work ModesWork ModesPower Modes H/P&E Auto Idle Engine EC Motor Pump Solenoid Valve Pressure Switch Electric System Hydraulic Pilot SystemWork Mode Select Switch Dual-Type Fuel Control Power Mode Select Switch H/P & E Auto Idle Switch Operator Comfort: The cab floats on six fluid- filled elastic mounts that smooth out shocks and jolts. Model Features: EX120 The hand control levers can be raised or lowered to match the operator’s build, and the controls can either glide forward or back with the seat or remain fixed while the seat moves.The work modes, power modes, air conditioning controls, and dial-type engine speed control are all located beside the operator. A Top Priority AM-FM Radio4 Work Modes For Increased PerformanceThe four work modes have been enhanced from prior models. The General Purpose Mode is appropriate for general digging and truck load- ing. All circuits work together. ➁ The Grading Mode provides priority to the combined operation of boom raise, stick forward and bucket adjustment while limiting control response so that the movement is smooth. ➂ The Precision Mode keeps the front attachment moving precisely and slowly. ➃ The Attachment Mode is designed to automatically match the oil flow require- ments of selected attachments such as a hydraulic hammer. Additional piping is required (optional). H/P and E Modes For Increased Efficiency• The Normal mode is for normal or average applications. The engine runs at an efficient maximum speed for longest life and general economy. The hydraulic pump runs at a baseline 100%. • The H/P mode provides the full power of the EX120 on command. This function increases engine rpm by 6% when activated, thus providing 5% more horsepower when needed. – Engine rpm automatically increases when the arm-in function meets resistance. – Automatically switches back to normal rpm when resistance is overcome for fuel savings. • The E mode provides 94% of full power while providing 15% more fuel efficiency. It is appropriate for light-duty work because it allows you to work longer before refueling. 4321 Sitting in one place, all day, operating a machine productively takes concentration and dedication to doing a good job. It also means that a smart owner is going to do everything possible to make sure his operator is comfortable in the cab. The Hitachi EX120 is an excellent example of how comfortable a well-designed cab can be. The widest cab in its class: 3 ft. 4 in. (1 005 mm). Lots of leg room, wide side door. The ergonomically-designed seat is fully adjustable with tilting armrests, tilting back, floating or solidly fixed seat, headrest tilt, and seat raise/lower.
