The provided document is an Operator's Manual for the Hitachi Material Handling Machine models ZX210LC-3, ZX250LC-3, ZX350LC-3, and ZX470LCH-3 Hydraulic Excavators. This manual specifically details the parts that differ from the standard Hitachi Hydraulic Excavator models.
Function Description:
This manual describes the operation and service procedures for the Hitachi Material Handling Machine, which is equipped with a long front attachment and an additional counterweight, making it suitable for scrap processing work. The machine is designed for material handling operations, including grasping and transporting objects with a grapple. It features various work modes and control patterns (ISO and Hitachi) for precise operation. The machine is not equipped with a lifting device and safety devices required for crane operations, and its use as a crane is prohibited.

Usage Features:
- Operator's Station: Equipped with a multi-function monitor panel, control levers (ISO and Hitachi patterns), attachment pedal, key switch, air conditioner panel, FM/AM radio, and various other switches.
- Work Mode Selection: Operators can select specific work modes from the monitor panel, including a digging mode, to optimize machine performance for different tasks.
- Attachment Pedal: Used for attachment swing operations, installed on either the right or left side.
- Object Handling: The machine is designed for object handling, and if equipped, must comply with EN 474-5, requiring a rated lifting-load table, lifting hook, overload alarm device, and hose rupture safety valve.
- Safety Features: Includes safety alert symbols, signal words (DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION, IMPORTANT, NOTE), seat belt, travel alarm, horn, FOPS cab (optional for falling stones/debris), and an overload alarm device.
- Break-in Operation: New machines require a break-in period of approximately 50 hours, operating in economy (E) mode at about 80% of maximum engine power, with daily greasing of front attachment joint pins.
Maintenance Features:
- Daily Inspections: Operators are instructed to perform daily inspections before starting work, checking engine, upperstructure, undercarriage, and front attachment for levels, leaks, damage, and loose parts.
- Periodic Replacement of Parts: Critical rubber hoses and other components must be periodically replaced at specified intervals (e.g., every 2 years for hydraulic system hoses) to ensure safe operation.
