2025?Hitachi?ZX130-7?Excavator – Versatile Power & Comfort

The ZX130-7 is a medium-class excavator in Hitachi’s ZAXIS-7 lineup. A 4-cylinder Isuzu AR-4JJ1X diesel with variable-geometry turbo and Final Tier 4 emissions produces 105 gross hp (100 net hp) at 2,000 rpm. Two axial piston pumps feed a HIOS IV hydraulic system that reduces losses and gives responsive control. The machine generates 23,380 lbf of bucket breakout force, digs to 19 ft 9 in and reaches 28 ft 9 in at ground level. Operating weight ranges from 30,865 to 33,951 lb, delivering big-machine capability in an agile package.

Notable features

• Chassis & durability: Reinforced boom ends and feet with bushings, anti-mud rollers and better idler sealing protect the undercarriage. A D-section frame resists deformation and heat-treated pins and 2-speed travel motors provide strong traction with 70 % gradeability.


• Work modes & hydraulics: The HIOS IV system cuts hydraulic loss and improves fuel economy. ECO, PWR and HP modes match power to the task, and the monitor lets operators adjust attachment, arm and swing priorities.


• Operator customization: An anti-glare 8-in LCD has presets for up to 16 attachments and allows fine adjustment of flow and speed. The seat and console adjust together, and low-effort pilot controls with grouped switches reduce fatigue.


• Cab comfort: A larger cab with more legroom, improved sound isolation and panoramic visibility keeps operators comfortable. Climate and audio are controlled from the monitor, while Bluetooth, USB charging, a smartphone holder and ample storage add convenience. One-touch console adjustment with integrated seat suspension and fluid-filled mounts reduce vibration.


• Safety & visibility: The Aerial Angle camera system provides a 270-degree bird’s-eye view with multi-angle display. LED lights, reflective strips, an improved wiper and sunshades enhance visibility. Optional cab guards and a rear-view camera add protection.


• Service & uptime: Wide-opening engine covers and grouped service points simplify maintenance. Spin-on fuel and dual-element air filters keep dirt out. The monitor shows maintenance intervals and lets operators check fluids. A 75.2-gal fuel tank and dual batteries extend run time.

Conclusion: Combining strong digging power, efficient hydraulics and a comfortable, well-equipped cab, the ZX130-7 is a versatile choice for mid-size excavation. Its 19-ft-9-in dig depth and nimble footprint suit residential and commercial construction, road and highway work and rental fleets. Contractors seeking a reliable excavator with modern operator amenities and simplified maintenance will appreciate how the ZX130-7 balances performance and efficiency.
