The Forester ZX138MF Is Purpose Built for Harsh Logging Work

Engine compartment noise is well suppressed with a low-noise muffler, resin fan, fun guide and likes for low-noise operations.

Low Noise

Performance

The engine complies with the US EPA Tier 2 and EU Stage II Emission Regulations.

Emissions Control Engine(Non-Common Rail Type)

The forestry undercarriage is rugged enough to move about in woods and deliver plenty of traction force. A low ground pressure also helps increase high mobility. The forestry undercarriage is high and wide: Ample ground clearance and wide track gauge reduce striking against obstacles such as stubs and stumps.

Robust Forestry Undercarriage

The Hitachi forester ZX138MF comes with advanced technologies, including impressive cooling ability to well suppress overheating, and the fuel-efficient non-common rail type engines for productive forestry operations.

For IndonesiaThe forester ZX138MF, built on years of operating experience in Indonesia, offers high productivity and durability what customers expect most on tough forestry job sites.

By HITACHIThe ZX138MF, designed and built on Hitachi original technologies and manufacturing prowess, to allow for productive, reliable forestory work.

Idler brackets are redesigned by changing construction and by using thicker plates for toughness. Upper rollers are supported at both ends, and side frame tops are sloped to let muck and stems slide away easily. Four track guards on each track keep track links to be engaged on soft ground. Idlers, track springs and adjuster cylinders are all strengthened too. Adjuster cylinder stroke is extended up to 30 %. Insert-type idler yokes are utilized to suppress jolts.

Strengthened Track Components

The forestry boom is strengthened with thicker plates than a standard boom and by additional welding. The forestry arm 3.01 m (Long Reach Arm) is strengthened with thickened plates.

The cab and body are electrocoated by electrodeposition practice by electrolysis for corrosion protection. In particular, this coating is effective at corrosion-prone points, such as flat surfaces, edges and box structures. Also, this coating leaves no spattering traces due to spray painting, keeping smooth painting finish.

Exclusive Guards for Forestry Cab and Body

Forestry Cab GuardThe forestry cab is protected with a cab guard at front, top and rear for surrounding obstacles. The guard at the top can be opened for emergency evacuation. Body GuardsThe body is protected with body guards on the top and both sides. The top guard serves to protect the engine; and side body guards to protect the radiator and hydraulic pumps. Dust Prevention NetsThe engine and radiator compartments are provided with dust-prevention nets to keep clean inside, reducing the entry of airborne debris and dust.

Keeping Cool

The radiator is well encapsulated to prevent its heated air discharge, keeping the engine and hydraulic oil cool even in high-temperature environments.

Notes: 1. Ratings are based on ISO 10567. 2. Lifting capacity does not exceed 75% of tipping load with the machine on firm,

level ground or 87% full hydraulic capacity. 3. The load point is the center-line of the bucket pivot mounting pin on the arm. 4. *Indicates load limited by hydraulic capacity. 5. 0 m = Ground.

For lifting capacities, subtract bucket and quick hitch weight from lifting capacities without bucket.
