INVESTIGATE JOB SITE BEFOREHAND
When working at the edge of an excavation or on a road
shoulder, the machine could tip over due to collapse of
the ground, possibly resulting in serious injury or death.
• Investigate the configuration and ground conditions of
the job site beforehand to prevent the machine from
falling and to prevent the ground, stockpiles, or banks
from collapsing.
• Make a work plan. Use machines appropriate to the
work and job site.
• Reinforce ground, edges, and road shoulders as nec-
essary. Keep the machine well back from the edges of
excavations and road shoulders.
• When working on an incline or on a road shoulder,
employ a signal person as required.
• Never allow bystanders to enter the working area such
as swing radius or traveling range.
• When the footing is weak, reinforce the ground before
starting work.
• When working on frozen ground, be extremely alert.
As ambient temperatures rise, footing may become
loose and slippery.
• When operating the machine near open flame, sparks,
and/or dead grass, a fire may easily break out. Use
special care not to cause a fire.
• Make sure the work site ground has sufficient strength
to firmly support the machine. When working close to
an excavation or on road shoulders, operate the ma-
chine with the tracks positioned perpendicular to the
cliff face with travel motors at the rear and with the
blade at the front, so that the machine can more easily
evacuate if the cliff face collapses.
• If working at the bottom of a cliff or on a high bank is
required, be sure to investigate the area first and con-
firm that no danger of the cliff or bank collapsing exists.
If any possibility of cliff or bank collapsing exists, do
not work in that area.
• Soft ground may collapse when operating the machine
on it, possibly causing the machine to tip over. When
working on a soft ground is required, be sure to rein-
force the ground first using large pieces of steel plates
strong enough and firm to easily support the machine.
• Note that there is always a possibility of machine tip-
ping over when working on rough terrain or on slopes.
Prevent machine tipping over from occurring. Operate
the machine slowly to ensure safe operation.

working in areas where the possibility of falling stones or
debris exist.
PROVIDE SIGNALS FOR JOBS INVOLVING
MULTIPLE NUMBERS OF MACHINES
In case more than one machine is operated in the same
job site, accidental collision between machines may
cause serious injury or death.
For jobs involving multiple numbers of machines, provide
signals commonly known by all personnel involved. Also,
appoint a signal person to coordinate the job site. Make
sure that all personnel obey the signal person’s direc-
tions.
SA-481
CONFIRM DIRECTION OF MACHINE TO BE
DRIVEN
Incorrect travel pedal/lever operation may result in seri-
ous injury or death.
• Before driving the machine, confirm the position of the
undercarriage in relation to the operator’s position.
• If the travel motors are located towards the front of the
cab, the machine will move in the reverse direction
when travel pedals/levers are operated.
SA-1294
SAFETY
SA-11
DRIVE MACHINE SAFELY
Use a signal person when traveling the machine along
road shoulders or in congested areas.
Driving the machine in the incorrect direction may result
in serious injury or death and/or severe damage to
property.
Before driving the machine, always confirm that the
travel pedals/levers direction corresponds to the direc-
tion you wish to drive.
• Be sure to detour around any obstructions.
• Avoid traveling over obstructions. Soil, fragments of
rocks, and/or metal pieces may scatter around the
machine. Do not allow personnel to stay around the
machine while traveling.
Driving on a slope may cause the machine to slip or
overturn, possibly resulting in serious injury or death.
• Never attempt to ascend or descend 30 degrees or
steeper slopes.
• Be sure to fasten the seat belt.
• When driving up or down a slope, keep the bucket
facing the direction of travel, approximately 200 to 300
mm (8 to 12 in) (A) above the ground.
• If machine starts to skid or becomes unstable, imme-
diately lower the bucket to the ground and stop.
• Driving across the face of a slope or steering on a
slope may cause the machine to skid or turnover. If the
direction must be changed, move the machine to level
ground, then, change the direction to ensure safe op-
eration.
• Avoid swinging the upperstructure on slopes. Never
attempt to swing the upperstructure downhill. The
machine may tip over. If swinging uphill is unavoidable,
carefully operate the upperstructure and boom at slow
speed.
• If the engine stalls on a slope, immediately lower the
bucket to the ground. Return the control levers to neu-
tral. Then, restart the engine.
• Be sure to thoroughly warm up the machine before
ascending steep slopes. If hydraulic oil has not
warmed up sufficiently, sufficient performance may not
be obtained.

• Traveling down a slope in the fast mode requires a
longer time to stop the machine. When traveling down
a slope, place travel mode switch (1) in the TURTLE
position.
• Select a travel route that is as flat as possible. Steer
the machine as straight as possible, making small
gradual changes repeatedly in direction.
• Check the strengths of bridges and road shoulders
before traveling on them, and reinforce if necessary.
• When the machine is equipped with steel shoes, cover
the road surface with wood plates in order not to
damage the road surface. Be careful of steering when
operating on asphalt roads in summer.
• When crossing train tracks, lay wood plates over the
tracks not to allow the machine to ride on only the
rails.
• Check that the machine can pass under a bridge and
electric lines before driving the machine.
• When crossing a river, drive the machine slowly while
measuring the depth of the river using the bucket. Do
not cross the river when the depth of the river is
deeper than the upper track shoe surface.
• Reduce the engine speed when traveling on rough
terrains. Select a slow travel speed. Slower speed will
reduce possible damage to the machine.
• Drive the machine so that the travel motors do not
come in contact with loose rocks. If the machine
crosses over an obstruction, abnormally large loads
may be loaded on the machine. Avoid contact with an
obstruction while traveling the machine.
• During freezing weather, always clean snow and ice
from track shoes before driving the machine on snowy
and/or frozen roads, or loading and unloading the
machine for transportation, to prevent the machine

disassem-bling/assembling procedures beforehand,
to help avoid incorrect disassembling of
components as well as personal injury.
Check and record the items listed below to prevent
problems from occurring in the future.
• The machine model, machine serial number, and
hour meter reading.
• Reason for disassembly (symptoms, failed parts,
and causes).
• Clogging of filters and oil, water or air leaks, if
any.
• Capacities and condition of lubricants.
• Loose or damaged parts.
Prepare and Clean Tools and Disassembly Area
Prepare the necessary tools to be used and the
area for disassembling work.
Precautions for Disassembling
• To prevent dirt from entering, cap or plug the
removed pipes.
• Before disassembling, clean the exterior of the
components and place on a work bench.
• Before disassembling, drain gear oil from the
reduction gear.
• Be sure to provide appropriate containers for
draining fluids.
• Use matching marks for easier reassembling.
• Be sure to use the specified special tools, when
instructed.
• If a part or component cannot be removed after
removing its securing nuts and bolts, do not
attempt to remove it forcibly. Find the cause(s),
then take the appropriate measures to remove it.
• Orderly arrange disassembled parts. Mark and
tag them as necessary.
• Store common parts, such as bolts and nuts with
reference to where they are to be used and in a
manner that will prevent loss.
• Inspect the contact or sliding surfaces of
disassembled parts for abnormal wear, sticking,
or other damage.
• Measure and record the degree of wear and
clearances.
GENERAL / Precautions for Disassembling and Assembling
W1-1-2
Precautions for Assembling
• Be sure to clean all parts and inspect them for
any damage. If any damage is found, repair or
replace part.
• Dirt or debris on the contact or sliding surfaces
may shorten the service life of the machine. Take
care not to contaminate any contact or sliding
surfaces.
• Apply suitable lubricant onto parts in order to
prevent them from seizing.
• Be sure to replace O-rings, backup rings, and oil
seals with new ones once they are disassembled.
Apply a film of grease before installing.
• Be sure that liquid-gasket-applied surfaces are
clean and dry.
• If an anti-corrosive agent has been used on a
new part, be sure to thoroughly clean the part to
remove the agent.
• Utilize matching marks when assembling.
• Be sure to use the designated tools to assemble
bearings, bushings and oil seals.
• Keep a record of the number of tools used for
disassembly/assembly. After assembling is
complete, count the number of tools, so as to
make sure that no forgotten tools remain in the
assembled machine.
Bleeding Air from Hydraulic System
When hydraulic oil is drained, the suction filter or the
suction lines are replaced, or the removal and in-
stallation of the pump, swing motor, travel motor or
cylinder is done, bleed air from the hydraulic system
in the following procedures:
IMPORTANT: If the engine is started with air
trapped in the hydraulic pump hous-
ing, damage to the pump may result.
If the hydraulic motor is operated
with air trapped in the hydraulic
motor housing, damage to the mo-
tor may result.
If the cylinder is operated with air
trapped in the cylinder tube, dam-
age to the cylinder may result.
Be sure to bleed air before starting
the engine.
Bleeding Air from Hydraulic Pump
• Remove the air bleeding plug from the top of the
pump and fill the pump housing with hydraulic oil.
• After the pump housing is filled with hydraulic oil,
temporarily tighten the plug. Then, start the en-
gine and run at slow idle speed.
• Slightly loosen the plug to bleed air from the
pump housing until hydraulic oil oozes out.
• After bleeding all the air, securely tighten the
plug.
Bleeding Air from Travel Motor / Swing Motor
• With the drain plug / hose on travel motor / swing
motor removed, fill the motor case with hydraulic
oil.
GENERAL / Precautions for Disassembling and Assembling
W1-1-3
Bleeding Air from Hydraulic Circuit
• After refilling hydraulic oil, start the engine. While
operating each cylinder, swing motor and travel
motor evenly, operate the machine under light
loads for 10 to 15 minutes. Slowly start each op-
eration (never fully stroke the cylinders during ini-
tial operation stage). As the pilot oil circuit has an
air bleed device, air trapped in the pilot oil circuit
will be bled while performing the above operation
for approx. 5 minutes.
• Reposition the front attachment to check hydrau-
lic oil level.
• Stop the engine. Recheck hydraulic oil level. Re-
plenish oil as necessary.

Precautions for Using Nylon Sling
1. Follow the precautions below to use nylon slings
safely.
• Attach protectors (soft material) on the corners of
the load so that the nylon sling does not directly
contact the corners. This will prevent the nylon
sling from being damaged and the lifted load from
slipping.
• Lower the temperature of the lifted load to lower
than 100 C (212 F). If unavoidably lifting a load
with a temperature of 100 C (212 F) or more,
reduce the load weight.
• Do not lift acid or alkali chemicals.
• Take care not to allow the sling to become wet.
The load may slip.
• When required to use more than one sling, use
slings with the same width and length to keep the
lifted load balanced.
• When lifting a load using an eyehole, be sure to
eliminate any gaps between the sling and load.
(Refer to the right illustration.) Reduce the load
weight so that it is less than 80 % of the sling
breaking force.
• Avoid using twisted, bound, connected, or
hitched slings.
• Do not place any object on twisted or bent slings.
(Refer to the right illustration.)
• When removing the slings from under the load,
take care not to damage the nylon slings. Avoid
contact with protrusions.
• Avoid dragging slings on the ground, throwing
slings or pushing slings with a metal object.
• When using with other types of slings (wire rope)
or accessories (shackle), protect the joint so that
the nylon sling is not damaged.
• Store the nylon slings indoors so they won’t dete-
riorate with heat, sun light, or chemicals.

CAUTION: Use tools appropriate for the
work to be done. Makeshift tools and proce-
dures can create safety hazards. For loos-
ening and tightening nuts and bolts, use cor-
rect size tools. Otherwise, tightening tools
may slip, potentially causing personal injury.
Bolt Types
Tighten nuts or bolts correctly to torque specifications.
Four different types and grades of bolt are employed.
Make sure to employ correct bolts and tighten them
correctly when assembling the machine or compo-
nents.

IMPORTANT: The following items are applied to
both fine and coarse pitch threads.
1. Apply lubricant (i. e. white zinc B
dissolved Into Spindle oil) to
nuts and bolts to reduce their
friction coefficients.
The plated bolts require no lu-
bricant.
2. Torque tolerance is 10 %.
3. Be sure to use bolts of correct
length. Bolts that are too long
cannot be tightened, as the bolt
tip comes into contact with the
bottom of the bolt hole. Bolts
that are too short cannot develop
sufficient tightening force.
4. The torques given in the chart
are for general use only. Do not
use these torques if a different
torque is given for a specific ap-
plication.
5. Make sure that nut and bolt
threads are clean before install-
ing.
Remove dirt or corrosion, if any.
Bolt Tightening Order
When tightening two or more bolts, tighten them al-
ternately, as shown, to ensure even tightening.

Service Recommendations for Split Flange
IMPORTANT: 1. Be sure to clean and inspect
sealing surfaces. Scratches /
roughness cause leaks and seal
wear.
Unevenness causes seal extru-
sion. If defects cannot be pol-
ished out, replace the compo-
nent.
2. Be sure to use only specified
O-rings. Inspect O-rings for any
damage. Take care not to file
O-ring surfaces. When installing
an O-ring into a groove, use
grease to hold it in place.
3. While lightly tightening split
flange halves, check that split is
centered and perpendicular to
the port. Hand-tighten bolts to
hold parts in place. Take care not
to pinch the O-ring.
4. Tighten bolts alternately and di-
agonally, as shown, to ensure
even tightening.
5. Do not use air wrenches. Using
an air wrench often causes
tightening of one bolt fully before
tightening of the others, result-
ing in damage to O-rings or un-
even tightening of bolts.
Nut and Bolt Locking
Lock Plate
IMPORTANT: Do not reuse lock plates. Do not try
to bend the same point twice.
Cotter Pin
IMPORTANT: Do not reuse cotter pins. Match the
holes in the bolt and nut while
tightening, not while loosening.
Lock Wire
IMPORTANT: Apply wire to bolts in the
bolt-tightening direction, not in the
bolt-loosening direction.

Connecting Hose
CAUTION: When replacing hoses, be sure to
use only genuine Hitachi service parts. Using
hoses other than genuine Hitachi hoses may
cause oil leaks, hose rupture or Separation
of fitting, possibly resulting in a fire on the
machine.
Do not install hoses kinked. Application of
high oil pressure, vibration, or an impact to a
kinked hose may result in oil leaks, hose
rupture or separation of fitting. Utilize Print
marks on hoses when installing to prevent
hose from being kinked.
If hoses rub against each other, wear to the
hoses will result, leading to hose rupture.
Take necessary measures to protect hoses
from rubbing against each other.
Take care so that hoses do not come into
contact with moving parts or sharp objects.

PERIODIC REPLACEMENT OF PARTS
To ensure safe operation, be sure to conduct periodic
inspection of the machine. In addition, the parts listed
below, if defective, may pose serious safety/fire haz-
ards. It is very difficult to gauge the extent of deterio-
ration, fatigue, or weakening of the parts listed below
simply by visual inspection alone. For this reason,
replace these parts at the intervals shown in the table
below. However, if any of these parts are found to be
defective, replace before starting operation, regard-
less of the interval.
Also, when replacing hoses, check the clamps for de-
formation, cracks, or other deterioration, and replace if
necessary.
Be sure to perform periodic inspection of all hoses, as
shown below, and replace or retighten any defective
parts found, if necessary.
Consult your authorized dealer for correct replace-
ment.

IMPORTANT: The operating torque of adjuster
screw (5) is 24.5 N m (2.5 kgf m, 18
lbf ft) or lower. In case larger torque
is required, it is probable that bolts
(4) remain not removed. Re-check
from this perspective.
3. Turn adjuster screw (5). Tilt the canopy or cab (1)
assembly toward front.
: 17 mm
4. Turn adjuster screw (5) clockwise until disc (6) on
the side face of the tilting device moves to the
farthest end.
CAUTION: Do not tilt up cab (1) as far as the
striped region. If done so, cab (1) tilts forward
because the center of gravity overhangs the
balancing point, which is dangerous.
5. In cab (1) version machines, stop tilting up 50 mm
before the farthest end (before the striped region
(6)).

PROCEDURE FOR FLOOR TILTING DOWN
1. Return fall prevention lever (7) toward direction of
the arrow while raising lock stopper (14).
CAUTION: Do not lower the floor abruptly. If
adjuster screw (5) is rotated abruptly in
lowering the floor, the floor trembles
enormously, which is dangerous.
2. Slowly turn adjuster screw (5) anticlockwise.
: 17 mm
3. Turn adjuster screw (5) counterclockwise until the
farthest end contacts receiver seat (8).
CAUTION: After the floor has been lowered
completely, if adjuster screw (5) is kept
turned, it will not be turned any longer when
unscrewed by about 15 mm because washer
(11) touches pin (12). Be careful not to turn
adjuster screw (5) further because washer
(11) deforms and gets damaged, causing fall
of bolt (13).
4. When the floor has been lowered completely,
adjuster screw (5) is drawn. Make adjustment so
that the clearance between collar (9) of adjuster
screw (5) and contact face (10) becomes 2 to 5
mm (0.1 to 0.2 in).

  • 5. SAFETY SA-2 FOLLOW SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Carefully read and follow all safety signs on the machine as well as all safety messages in this manual. Safety signs must be installed, maintained and replaced if damaged. • If a safety sign or this manual is damaged or missing, order a replacement from your authorized dealer in the same way you order other replacement parts (be sure to state machine model and serial number when or- dering). Allow only properly trained, qualified, authorized per- sonnel to operate the machine. Learn how to correctly operate and service the machine. Keep your machine in proper working condition. Always operate the machine within the specification. • Unauthorized modifications of the machine may impair the functions and/or safety and affect machine life and the warranty will become void. The safety messages in this SAFETY chapter are in- tended to illustrate basic safety procedures of machines. However it is impossible for these safety messages to cover every possible hazardous situation you may en- counter. If you have any questions concerning safety, you should first consult your supervisor and/or your au- thorized dealer before operating or performing mainte- nance work on the machine. SA-003 PREPARE FOR EMERGENCIES Be prepared if a fire starts or if an accident occurs. • Keep a first aid kit and fire extinguisher on hand. • Thoroughly read and understand the label attached on the fire extinguisher and use it properly. • To ensure that a fire extinguisher can be always used when necessary, check and service the fire extin- guisher at the recommended intervals as specified in the fire-extinguisher manual. • Establish emergency procedure guidelines to cope with any fire or accidents which may occur. • Keep emergency numbers for doctors, ambulance service, hospitals, and fire department posted near your telephone. SA-437
  • 6. SAFETY SA-3 WEAR PROTECTIVE CLOTHING Wear close fitting clothing and safety equipment appro- priate to the job. You may need: A hard hat Safety belt Safety shoes Safety glasses, goggles, or face shield Heavy gloves Hearing protection Reflective clothing Wet weather gear Respirator or filter mask. Be sure to wear the correct equipment and clothing for the job. Do not take any chances. • Avoid wearing loose clothing, jewelry, or other items that can catch on control levers or other parts of the machine. Operating equipment safely requires the full attention of the operator. Do not wear radio or music headphones while operating the machine. SA-438 PROTECT AGAINST NOISE Prolonged exposure to loud noise can cause impairment or loss of hearing. • Wear a suitable hearing protective device such as earmuffs or earplugs to protect against objectionable or uncomfortably loud noises. SA-434 INSPECT MACHINE If any abnormality is found, be sure to repair it immedi- ately before operating the machine. • In the walk-around inspection, be sure to cover all points described in the “PRE-START INSPECTION” chapter in the operator’s manual. SA-435
  • 7. SAFETY SA-4 TIDY UP INSIDE OPERATOR’S SPACE Always keep inside the cab clean by observing instruc- tions below, to prevent any personal accidents from oc- curring. Remove mud and/or oily material from the shoe soles before entering the operator’s space. If pedals are oper- ated without removing mud or oily matter, the foot may slip off the pedal, possibly creating a hazardous situa- tion. Do not leave parts and/or tools around the operator’s seat. Do not keep a transparent water bottle in the cab. The transparent water bottle may concentrate the sun light like a lens, possibly causing a fire. Do not wear radio or music headphones and do not use a cell phone while traveling or operating the machine. Never allow hazardous materials such as combustible and/or explosive material in the operator’s space. Do not leave cigarette lighters in the cab. If the tem- perature in the cab increases, the lighter may explode. USE HANDHOLDS AND STEPS Falling is one of the major causes of personal injury. • When you get on and off the machine, always face the machine. • Maintain a three-point contact with the steps and handrails. • Do not use any controls as handholds. • Never jump on or off the machine. Never mount or dismount a moving machine. • In case adhered slippery material such as oil, grease, or mud is present on steps, handrails, or platforms, thoroughly remove such material. SA-439
  • 8. SAFETY SA-5 ADJUST THE OPERATOR'S SEAT A poorly adjusted seat for either the operator or for the work at hand may quickly fatigue the operator leading to mis-operation of the machine. • The seat should be adjusted whenever the operator for the machine changes. • The operator should be able to fully depress the ped- als and to correctly operate the control levers with his back firmly against the seat back. • If not, readjust the seat forward or backward, and check again. SA-378 ENSURE SAFETY BEFORE RISING FROM OR LEAVING OPERATOR’S SEAT Before rising from the operator’s seat to open/close cab front window or to adjust the seat position, be sure to first lower the front attachment to the ground and then move the pilot control shut-off lever to the LOCK position. Failure to do so may allow the machine to unexpectedly move when a body part unintentionally comes in contact with a control lever, possibly resulting in serious personal injury or death. Before leaving the machine, be sure to first lower the front attachment to the ground and then move the pilot control shut-off lever to the LOCK position. Turn the key switch OFF to stop the engine. Before leaving the machine, close all windows, doors, and access covers and lock them up. FASTEN YOUR SEAT BELT If the machine should overturn, the operator may be- come injured and/or thrown from the cab. Additionally the operator may be crushed by the overturning machine, resulting in serious injury or death. • Be sure to remain seated with the seat belt securely fastened whenever operating the machine. • Prior to operating the machine, thoroughly examine webbing, buckle and attaching hardware. If any item is damaged or worn, replace the seat belt or component before operating the machine. Replace the seat belt at least once every 3 years regardless of appearance SA-237
  • 9. SAFETY SA-6 MOVE AND OPERATE MACHINE SAFELY Always be aware that there is a potential danger around the machine while operating the machine. • Take extra care not to run over bystanders. Confirm the location of bystanders before moving, swinging, or operating the machine. • Always keep the travel alarm and horn in working condition (if equipped). • Before starting to move or operate the machine, sound the travel alarm and horn to alert bystanders. • Use a signal person when moving, swinging, or oper- ating the machine in congested areas. Locate the signal person so that the operator can always witness the signal person. • Coordinate the meanings of all safety signs, hand signals and marks before starting the machine. Ap- point a person who is responsible to make a signal and/or guidance. • Never allow any persons or obstacles to enter the machine operation areas. • Use appropriate illuminations. SA-1291
  • 10. SAFETY SA-7 OPERATE ONLY FROM OPERATOR'S SEAT Inappropriate engine starting procedures may cause the machine to runaway, possibly resulting in serious injury or death. • Start the engine only when seated in the operator's seat. • NEVER start the engine while standing on the tracks or on ground. • Do not start engine by shorting across starter terminals. A hazardous situation may be created and/or possible damage to the machine may result. • Before starting the engine, confirm that all control lev- ers are in neutral. SA-444 JUMP STARTING Failure to follow correct jump starting procedures could result in a battery explosion or a runaway machine. • If the engine must be jump started, be sure to follow the instructions shown in the “OPERATING THE EN- GINE” chapter. • The operator must be seated in the operator’s seat so that the machine will be under control when the engine starts. Jump starting is a two-person operation. • Never use a frozen battery. • Failure to follow correct jump starting procedures could result in a battery explosion or a runaway machine. SA-032 KEEP RIDERS OFF MACHINE Riders on machine are subject to injury such as being struck by foreign objects and being thrown off the machine. • Riders also obstruct the operator’s view, resulting in the machine being operated in an unsafe manner. • Only allow the operator is allowed on the machine. Keep riders off. SA-1292
  • 11. SAFETY SA-8 PRECAUTIONS FOR OPERATIONS Thoroughly make certain safety at the work site before starting operations. Especially always observe the fol- lowing points. • Be sure to wear close fitting clothing and required safety items, such as a hard hat, when operating the machine. • Keep all bystanders and unnecessary objects out of and away from the machine working areas. Always beware of the surroundings while operating the ma- chine. Take care not to allow the rear part of the up- perstructure to come in contact with objects when swinging the machine in a small area. • When loading a dump truck, bring the bucket from the rear side of the dump truck to avoid moving the bucket over the dump truck cab or over any co-workers. M586-12-012
  • 12. SAFETY SA-9 INVESTIGATE JOB SITE BEFOREHAND When working at the edge of an excavation or on a road shoulder, the machine could tip over due to collapse of the ground, possibly resulting in serious injury or death. • Investigate the configuration and ground conditions of the job site beforehand to prevent the machine from falling and to prevent the ground, stockpiles, or banks from collapsing. • Make a work plan. Use machines appropriate to the work and job site. • Reinforce ground, edges, and road shoulders as nec- essary. Keep the machine well back from the edges of excavations and road shoulders. • When working on an incline or on a road shoulder, employ a signal person as required. • Never allow bystanders to enter the working area such as swing radius or traveling range. • When the footing is weak, reinforce the ground before starting work. • When working on frozen ground, be extremely alert. As ambient temperatures rise, footing may become loose and slippery. • When operating the machine near open flame, sparks, and/or dead grass, a fire may easily break out. Use special care not to cause a fire. • Make sure the work site ground has sufficient strength to firmly support the machine. When working close to an excavation or on road shoulders, operate the ma- chine with the tracks positioned perpendicular to the cliff face with travel motors at the rear and with the blade at the front, so that the machine can more easily evacuate if the cliff face collapses. • If working at the bottom of a cliff or on a high bank is required, be sure to investigate the area first and con- firm that no danger of the cliff or bank collapsing exists. If any possibility of cliff or bank collapsing exists, do not work in that area. • Soft ground may collapse when operating the machine on it, possibly causing the machine to tip over. When working on a soft ground is required, be sure to rein- force the ground first using large pieces of steel plates strong enough and firm to easily support the machine. • Note that there is always a possibility of machine tip- ping over when working on rough terrain or on slopes. Prevent machine tipping over from occurring. Operate the machine slowly to ensure safe operation. SA-1293 M586-05-021
  • 13. SAFETY SA-10 PROTECT AGAINST FALLING STONES AND DEBRIS Confirm that your machine is FOPS cab equipped before working in areas where the possibility of falling stones or debris exist. PROVIDE SIGNALS FOR JOBS INVOLVING MULTIPLE NUMBERS OF MACHINES In case more than one machine is operated in the same job site, accidental collision between machines may cause serious injury or death. For jobs involving multiple numbers of machines, provide signals commonly known by all personnel involved. Also, appoint a signal person to coordinate the job site. Make sure that all personnel obey the signal person’s direc- tions. SA-481 CONFIRM DIRECTION OF MACHINE TO BE DRIVEN Incorrect travel pedal/lever operation may result in seri- ous injury or death. • Before driving the machine, confirm the position of the undercarriage in relation to the operator’s position. • If the travel motors are located towards the front of the cab, the machine will move in the reverse direction when travel pedals/levers are operated. SA-1294
  • 14. SAFETY SA-11 DRIVE MACHINE SAFELY Use a signal person when traveling the machine along road shoulders or in congested areas. Driving the machine in the incorrect direction may result in serious injury or death and/or severe damage to property. Before driving the machine, always confirm that the travel pedals/levers direction corresponds to the direc- tion you wish to drive. • Be sure to detour around any obstructions. • Avoid traveling over obstructions. Soil, fragments of rocks, and/or metal pieces may scatter around the machine. Do not allow personnel to stay around the machine while traveling. Driving on a slope may cause the machine to slip or overturn, possibly resulting in serious injury or death. • Never attempt to ascend or descend 30 degrees or steeper slopes. • Be sure to fasten the seat belt. • When driving up or down a slope, keep the bucket facing the direction of travel, approximately 200 to 300 mm (8 to 12 in) (A) above the ground. • If machine starts to skid or becomes unstable, imme- diately lower the bucket to the ground and stop. • Driving across the face of a slope or steering on a slope may cause the machine to skid or turnover. If the direction must be changed, move the machine to level ground, then, change the direction to ensure safe op- eration. • Avoid swinging the upperstructure on slopes. Never attempt to swing the upperstructure downhill. The machine may tip over. If swinging uphill is unavoidable, carefully operate the upperstructure and boom at slow speed. • If the engine stalls on a slope, immediately lower the bucket to the ground. Return the control levers to neu- tral. Then, restart the engine. • Be sure to thoroughly warm up the machine before ascending steep slopes. If hydraulic oil has not warmed up sufficiently, sufficient performance may not be obtained. SA-1295 SA-1296 SA-441 SA-589 A A
  • 15. SAFETY SA-12 • Traveling down a slope in the fast mode requires a longer time to stop the machine. When traveling down a slope, place travel mode switch (1) in the TURTLE position. • Select a travel route that is as flat as possible. Steer the machine as straight as possible, making small gradual changes repeatedly in direction. • Check the strengths of bridges and road shoulders before traveling on them, and reinforce if necessary. • When the machine is equipped with steel shoes, cover the road surface with wood plates in order not to damage the road surface. Be careful of steering when operating on asphalt roads in summer. • When crossing train tracks, lay wood plates over the tracks not to allow the machine to ride on only the rails. • Check that the machine can pass under a bridge and electric lines before driving the machine. • When crossing a river, drive the machine slowly while measuring the depth of the river using the bucket. Do not cross the river when the depth of the river is deeper than the upper track shoe surface. • Reduce the engine speed when traveling on rough terrains. Select a slow travel speed. Slower speed will reduce possible damage to the machine. • Drive the machine so that the travel motors do not come in contact with loose rocks. If the machine crosses over an obstruction, abnormally large loads may be loaded on the machine. Avoid contact with an obstruction while traveling the machine. • During freezing weather, always clean snow and ice from track shoes before driving the machine on snowy and/or frozen roads, or loading and unloading the machine for transportation, to prevent the machine from slipping.

  • 16. SAFETY SA-13 AVOID INJURY FROM ROLLAWAY ACCI- DENTS Death or serious injury may result if you attempt to mount or try to bodily stop a moving machine. Park the machine in compliance with the safe parking procedures described on page SA-19 to prevent the machine from running away. • Block both tracks and lower the bucket to the ground, thrust the bucket teeth into the ground if you must park on a grade. • Park a reasonable distance from other machines. SA-1297
  • 17. SAFETY SA-14 AVOID INJURY FROM BACK-OVER AND SWING ACCIDENTS If any person is present near the machine when backing or swinging the upperstructure, the machine may hit or run over that person, resulting in serious injury or death. To avoid back-over and swing accidents: • Always look around BEFORE YOU BACK UP AND SWING THE MACHINE. BE SURE THAT ALL BYSTANDERS ARE CLEAR. • Keep the travel alarm in working condition (if equipped). ALWAYS BE ALERT FOR BYSTANDERS MOVING INTO THE WORK AREA. USE THE HORN OR OTHER SIGNAL TO WARN BYSTANDERS BEFORE MOVING MACHINE. • USE A SIGNAL PERSON WHEN BACKING UP IF YOUR VIEW IS OBSTRUCTED. ALWAYS KEEP THE SIGNAL PERSON IN VIEW. Use hand signals, which conform to your local regulations, when work conditions require a signal person. • No machine motions shall be made unless signals are clearly understood by both signalman and operator. • Learn the meanings of all flags, signs, and markings used on the job and confirm who has the responsibility for signaling. • Keep windows, mirrors, and lights clean and in good condition. • Dust, heavy rain, fog, etc., can reduce visibility. As visibility decreases, reduce speed and use proper lighting. • Read and understand all operating instructions in the operator’s manual. 021-E01A-0494-8 SA-383 SA-384
  • 18. SAFETY SA-15 KEEP PERSON CLEAR FROM WORKING AREA If a person is present near the operating machine, the person may come in contact with the swinging front attachment or counterweight and/or may be crushed against an other object, resulting in serious injury or death. • Before operating the machine, set up barriers to the sides and rear area of the bucket swing radius to prevent anyone from entering the work area. • Make sure that no personnel other than the signal person or no obstacles are present in the working area before operating the machine. SA-667 NEVER POSITION BUCKET OVER ANYONE Never lift, move, or swing bucket above anyone or a truck cab. Serious injury or machine damage may result due to bucket load spill or due to collision with the bucket. • Never allow the bucket to pass over anyone to avoid personal injury or death. SA-668 AVOID UNDERCUTTING In order to retreat from the edge of an excavation if the footing should collapse, always position the undercarriage perpendicular to the edge of the excavation with the travel motors at the rear. • If the footing starts to collapse and if retreat is not possible, do not panic raise the front attachment with a panic. Lowering the front attachment may be safer in most cases. SA-1300
  • 19. SAFETY SA-16 AVOID TIPPING The danger of tipping is always present when operating on a grade, possibly resulting in serious injury or death. To avoid tipping: Be extra careful before operating on a grade. • Prepare machine operating area flat. • Keep the bucket low to the ground and close to the machine. • Reduce operating speeds to avoid tipping or slipping. • Avoid changing direction when traveling on grades. • NEVER attempt to travel across a grade steeper than 15 degrees if crossing the grade is unavoidable. • Reduce swing speed as necessary when swinging loads. Be careful when working on frozen ground. • Temperature increases will cause the ground to become soft and make ground travel unstable. 025-E01A-0540-4 SA-1301 NEVER UNDERCUT A HIGH BANK The edges could collapse or a land slide could occur causing serious injury or death. SA-1302
  • 20. SAFETY SA-17 DIG WITH CAUTION Accidental severing of underground cables or gas lines may cause an explosion and/or fire, possibly resulting in serious injury or death. • Before digging check the location of cables, gas lines, and water lines. • Keep the minimum distance required, by law, from cables, gas lines, and water lines. • If a fiber optic cable should be accidentally severed, do not look into the end. Doing so may result in seri- ous eye injury. • Contact your local “diggers hot line” if available in your area, and/or the utility companies directly. Have them mark all underground utilities. SA-672 OPERATE WITH CAUTION If the front attachment or any other part of the machine hits against an overhead obstacle, such as a bridge, both the machine and the overhead obstacle will be damaged, and personal injury may result as well. • Take care to avoid hitting overhead obstacles with the boom or arm.

  • 44. GENERAL / Precautions for Disassembling and Assembling W1-1-5 Precautions for Using Nylon Sling 1. Follow the precautions below to use nylon slings safely. • Attach protectors (soft material) on the corners of the load so that the nylon sling does not directly contact the corners. This will prevent the nylon sling from being damaged and the lifted load from slipping. • Lower the temperature of the lifted load to lower than 100 C (212 F). If unavoidably lifting a load with a temperature of 100 C (212 F) or more, reduce the load weight. • Do not lift acid or alkali chemicals. • Take care not to allow the sling to become wet. The load may slip. • When required to use more than one sling, use slings with the same width and length to keep the lifted load balanced. • When lifting a load using an eyehole, be sure to eliminate any gaps between the sling and load. (Refer to the right illustration.) Reduce the load weight so that it is less than 80 % of the sling breaking force. • Avoid using twisted, bound, connected, or hitched slings. • Do not place any object on twisted or bent slings. (Refer to the right illustration.) • When removing the slings from under the load, take care not to damage the nylon slings. Avoid contact with protrusions. • Avoid dragging slings on the ground, throwing slings or pushing slings with a metal object. • When using with other types of slings (wire rope) or accessories (shackle), protect the joint so that the nylon sling is not damaged. • Store the nylon slings indoors so they won’t dete- riorate with heat, sun light, or chemicals.

  • 50. GENERAL / Tightening W1-2-3 IMPORTANT: The following items are applied to both fine and coarse pitch threads. 1. Apply lubricant (i. e. white zinc B dissolved Into Spindle oil) to nuts and bolts to reduce their friction coefficients. The plated bolts require no lu- bricant. 2. Torque tolerance is 10 %. 3. Be sure to use bolts of correct length. Bolts that are too long cannot be tightened, as the bolt tip comes into contact with the bottom of the bolt hole. Bolts that are too short cannot develop sufficient tightening force. 4. The torques given in the chart are for general use only. Do not use these torques if a different torque is given for a specific ap- plication. 5. Make sure that nut and bolt threads are clean before install- ing. Remove dirt or corrosion, if any. Bolt Tightening Order When tightening two or more bolts, tighten them al- ternately, as shown, to ensure even tightening.

  • 51. GENERAL / Tightening W1-2-4 Service Recommendations for Split Flange IMPORTANT: 1. Be sure to clean and inspect sealing surfaces. Scratches / roughness cause leaks and seal wear. Unevenness causes seal extru- sion. If defects cannot be pol- ished out, replace the compo- nent. 2. Be sure to use only specified O-rings. Inspect O-rings for any damage. Take care not to file O-ring surfaces. When installing an O-ring into a groove, use grease to hold it in place. 3. While lightly tightening split flange halves, check that split is centered and perpendicular to the port. Hand-tighten bolts to hold parts in place. Take care not to pinch the O-ring. 4. Tighten bolts alternately and di- agonally, as shown, to ensure even tightening. 5. Do not use air wrenches. Using an air wrench often causes tightening of one bolt fully before tightening of the others, result- ing in damage to O-rings or un- even tightening of bolts. Nut and Bolt Locking Lock Plate IMPORTANT: Do not reuse lock plates. Do not try to bend the same point twice. Cotter Pin IMPORTANT: Do not reuse cotter pins. Match the holes in the bolt and nut while tightening, not while loosening. Lock Wire IMPORTANT: Apply wire to bolts in the bolt-tightening direction, not in the bolt-loosening direction.

  • 52. GENERAL / Tightening W1-2-5 PIPING JOINT IMPORTANT: The torques given in the chart are for general use only. Do not use these torques if a differ- ent torque is given for a specific ap- plication. Union Joint Metal sealing surfaces (4) and (5) of adaptor (1) and hose (2) fit together to seal pressure oil. Union joints are used to join small-diameter lines. IMPORTANT: 1. Do not over-tighten nut (3). Ex- cessive force will be applied to metal sealing surfaces (4) and (5), possibly cracking adaptor (1). Be sure to tighten nut (3) to specifi- cations. 2. Scratches or other damage to sealing surfaces (4) or (5) will cause oil leakage at the joint. Take care not to damage them when connecting/disconnecting.

  • 56. GENERAL / Tightening W1-2-9 Connecting Hose CAUTION: When replacing hoses, be sure to use only genuine Hitachi service parts. Using hoses other than genuine Hitachi hoses may cause oil leaks, hose rupture or Separation of fitting, possibly resulting in a fire on the machine. Do not install hoses kinked. Application of high oil pressure, vibration, or an impact to a kinked hose may result in oil leaks, hose rupture or separation of fitting. Utilize Print marks on hoses when installing to prevent hose from being kinked. If hoses rub against each other, wear to the hoses will result, leading to hose rupture. Take necessary measures to protect hoses from rubbing against each other. Take care so that hoses do not come into contact with moving parts or sharp objects.

  • 57. GENERAL / Tightening W1-2-10 PERIODIC REPLACEMENT OF PARTS To ensure safe operation, be sure to conduct periodic inspection of the machine. In addition, the parts listed below, if defective, may pose serious safety/fire haz- ards. It is very difficult to gauge the extent of deterio- ration, fatigue, or weakening of the parts listed below simply by visual inspection alone. For this reason, replace these parts at the intervals shown in the table below. However, if any of these parts are found to be defective, replace before starting operation, regard- less of the interval. Also, when replacing hoses, check the clamps for de- formation, cracks, or other deterioration, and replace if necessary. Be sure to perform periodic inspection of all hoses, as shown below, and replace or retighten any defective parts found, if necessary. Consult your authorized dealer for correct replace- ment.

  • 64. GENERAL / Floor-Tilting Device W1-5-3 IMPORTANT: The operating torque of adjuster screw (5) is 24.5 N m (2.5 kgf m, 18 lbf ft) or lower. In case larger torque is required, it is probable that bolts (4) remain not removed. Re-check from this perspective. 3. Turn adjuster screw (5). Tilt the canopy or cab (1) assembly toward front. : 17 mm 4. Turn adjuster screw (5) clockwise until disc (6) on the side face of the tilting device moves to the farthest end. CAUTION: Do not tilt up cab (1) as far as the striped region. If done so, cab (1) tilts forward because the center of gravity overhangs the balancing point, which is dangerous. 5. In cab (1) version machines, stop tilting up 50 mm before the farthest end (before the striped region (6)).

  • 66. GENERAL / Floor-Tilting Device W1-5-5 PROCEDURE FOR FLOOR TILTING DOWN 1. Return fall prevention lever (7) toward direction of the arrow while raising lock stopper (14). CAUTION: Do not lower the floor abruptly. If adjuster screw (5) is rotated abruptly in lowering the floor, the floor trembles enormously, which is dangerous. 2. Slowly turn adjuster screw (5) anticlockwise. : 17 mm 3. Turn adjuster screw (5) counterclockwise until the farthest end contacts receiver seat (8). CAUTION: After the floor has been lowered completely, if adjuster screw (5) is kept turned, it will not be turned any longer when unscrewed by about 15 mm because washer (11) touches pin (12). Be careful not to turn adjuster screw (5) further because washer (11) deforms and gets damaged, causing fall of bolt (13). 4. When the floor has been lowered completely, adjuster screw (5) is drawn. Make adjustment so that the clearance between collar (9) of adjuster screw (5) and contact face (10) becomes 2 to 5 mm (0.1 to 0.2 in).
