Hitachi Construction Machinery has introduced the latest version of the EH1100 rigid dump truck, the EH1100-5. This latest version features improvements to the operator environment, increased machine serviceability, increased payload and more remote monitoring capability.
The EH1100-5 is equipped with a 10-inch LCD display. A mechanically hinged handrail at the front of the cab can be positioned to provide the operator with optimum haul road visibility while the truck is in operation, or positioned to provide fall protection during cab area service. Many steering and brake system valves and test ports have been relocated from the mid-frame of the truck to the service deck of the truck for easier service and troubleshooting access.
