Buying a Hitachi 5.5t excavator, and sharing my thoughts after owning it for a few months. Thanks for watching!

Congrats mate, they are a great machine, I look after 15 ish of them here on the Sunshine Coast for Hitachi I rate them they are so basic but perform awesome Just change the final drive oils every 250 hours regardless of what they tell you and keep the cab filters clean, only run the a/c on recirculation and keep the cab closed it will never fail you.
Yep, great machines! Cheers
Just curious as to why only run the AC on recirculation?
@@henrymahoney7072 Helps minimise dust getting into the system and eventually clogging the evaporator and stopping air flow
@@aheindustries thanks
Great video mate
Cheers!
Nice video! I have been looking at the Airman AX55-7, which is the same machine.
Thanks mate, I haven't seen those Airman excavators before. How much are they selling for? What country are you in?
@@aheindustries Sweden. I haven’t received any pricing for this Hitachi so I can’t compare but the Airman was right about 700 000 SEK with three buckets and tiltrotor. As far as I understand they are identical apart from the paint job as Airman is/was the company that made the machines for Hitachi in the past.
Similar pricing to the Hitachi over here in Australia. Thanks for the info!@@erhammar
