The Hitachi EH1700 is equipped with an all-hydraulic actuated

braking system providing precise braking control and quick
system response. The brake control valve is actuated directly
at the brake pedal. The controller has a unique variable front
to rear brake proportioning that maximizes the stopping
performance under slippery road conditions and accounts
for weight transfer without having to deactivate front brakes.
COMMAND CAB III

COMMAND CAB III
Integral ROPS/FOPS
(Rollover Protection
Structure) is standard in
accordance with SAE
J/ISO 3471. Dimensions
comply with SAE J/ISO
3411. Double wall construction of 11 gauge
inner and outer steel
panels, lends itself to a
more structurally sound
cab. Foam rubber lining
material along with foam
rubber-backed carpeting and
multiple layered floor mat act to absorb
sound and control interior temperature. A properly maintained cab
from Euclid, tested with doors and windows closed per work cycle
procedures in SAE J1166, results in an operator sound exposure
Leq (Equivalent Sound Level) of 80 dB(A). A three-point rubber isomount arrangement to the deck surface minimizes vibration to the
operator compartment.
Service
Service brakes are all hydraulically actuated. Front disc brakes
have two calipers per disc that are internally ported, each containing
three pairs of opposing pistons. Rear brakes are
oil-cooled wet discs.

The Euclid wet disc brake is engineered for long service life even in
the most extreme environments. The wet disc brakes are located on
the rear axle and provide service braking,
secondary braking and retarding.
The brakes are of a multi-plate
design and continuously oilcooled. The sealed design
protects against environmental
contamination for prolonged
service life. The wet disc brake
is designed with automatic
retraction and self-adjusting
features to prevent drag and
compensate for wear.
Separate pedals activate
the service braking and
retarding functions to help
the operator keep both hands
on the steering wheel.
Brake systems meet or surpass SAE J/ISO 3450.

SUSPENSION
Front Suspension
Independent trailing arm for each front wheel. NEOCON struts
containing energy-absorbing gas and environmentally friendly
compressible NEOCON-E fluid mounted between trailing
arm and frame.
Formed rectangular rails with section height tapered from rear

to front, bridged by five cross members, front bumper and front
suspension tube. Cross member to frame junctions use large
radii to minimize stress. Frame utilizes 345 MPa 50,000 psi
yield strength steel.
Rear Suspension
The cast rear axle housing has a parallel link mounting with an
A-Frame top member. This provides a reduced roll-steer effect
which results in a more stabilized ride and contributes to lower
overall frame stress levels. Outboard-mounted NEOCON struts
suspend drive axle from frame. NEOCON struts provide variable
damping and rebound feature.
BODY
Flat chute type, sloped floor, continuously exhaust heated. High

The unique trailing arm front suspension absorbs haul road input,
minimizing suspension-induced frame twisting while providing
independent tire action. Ride struts are mounted with spherical
bushings, eliminating extreme sidewall forces by ensuring a purely
axial input to the ride strut. The wide track stance of the trailing
arm design and long wheel base assure a more stable,
comfortable ride. The suspension struts employ gas and
NEOCON-E fluid as the energy-absorbing media. This
suspension continues to absorb energy when extreme dynamic
loads are generated which significantly contributes to improved
isolation of the operator

and machine components.

The Euclid frame and suspension are designed to work in unison
to provide maximum structural integrity and operator comfort.
The formed rectangular frame rail construction provides superior
resistance to bending and torsional loads while eliminating
unnecessary weight. Euclid achieves long frame fatigue life
through proven design and manufacturing practices. Smooth
frame transitions minimize stress concentrations and steel
castings effectively distribute input loads. Frame life is further
enhanced by utilizing fatigue resistant weld joints and locating
welds in low stress areas.

Notes:1.Ratings are based on SAE J1097.

2.Lifting capacity of the EX Series does not exceed 75% of tipping load with the machine
on firm, level ground or 87% full hydraulic capacity.
3.The load point is a hook (not standard equipment) loaded on the back of the bucket.
4.*Indicates load limited by hydraulic capacity.
These specifications are subject to change without notice. Illustrations and photos show

Emission Control Engine
Helping to protect our environment.
Conforms to U.S. EPA Tier 2 and EC Tier 2
emission regulations.
Efficient E-P Control Adjusts power

output to the work being performed.
Hitachi's computer-aided Engine-Pump Control

The choice for increasing productivity
Hitachi has created

the ideal performance match
to increase productivity.
It is called the BMC
(Best Matching Control)
concept.
Finger-tip operated
shift lever
The operator can drive with
ease needing only a lighttouch to change travel
direction or gear range.
Clean-operating and
powerful engine complies
with Emission Regulation
U.S. EPA Tier 2.
Allows the operator to

change gears without
using the shift lever.
Each press of the downshift switch or upshift
switch changes the gear
up or down while the operator keeps his hand on
the arm and bucket control lever.
Return-to-carry control
Restriction valve
Powerful, cleanoperating engine
The stop position of the

bucket can be optionally
set. This helps prevent
shock and damage while
providing more efficient
operation.
Downshift switch (DSS)

Upshift switch (USS)
Reduces the shock

incurred when stopping
the arm, helping to
provide smooth operation.

The machine above it fitted with specially manufactured tires
that are not optionally available.
Lift arm can be

lowered with engine
stopped
Easy-to-monitor instrument panel
Clear view from cab front
Deluxe suspension seat
A pillar-less design gives an unobstructed view of the front.
The cloth-covered seat offers both

comfort and suspension.
Outer ROPS/FOPS* cab
deal
Match for Comfort & Safety
For boosting productivity and operator protection.
This rigid cab is ready "just

in case" to help protect the
operator from falling
objects or during a rollover.
The rear-hinged door
makes entry and exit easy.
*ROPS: Rollover Protective
Structure. Conforms to
ISO3471, 1994
*FOPS: Falling-Object Protective
Structure. Conforms to
ISO3449, 1992 Level
Electronically operated
parking brake
A simple press of a button
sets and releases the
parking brake.
Front control lever lock
An accumulator in the
hydraulic system for the
lift arm allows it to be lowered even if the engine
has been stopped.
Locks the controls to prevent unintentional operation when getting in and

out of the cab.
Independent front and

rear service brakes
Separate brake lines for
the front and rear wheels
means that one will be
available for braking in the
unlikely event that the
other fails.
Shift lever lock

Can be easily set to prevent accidental operation
of the shift lever.
External air induction

air conditioning (Automobile type)
Switches are easy to view

and reach
Clutch cut-off switch

Left brake pedal can be switched
between work mode for loader
operations and travel mode for
traveling.
Transmission selection switch

Operator can select automatic or
manual transmission operation.
3-mode switch
Automatic transmission provides
selection among three power
modes: (L) gives priority to traveling:
(M) is an intermediate range: (H) is
for loading operations.
4
This powerful air conditioning can

be switched between re-circulating
air inside the cab or drawing it in
from outside.
Front and rear defrosters

reduce fogging for clear visibility
AM/FM stereo radio with
automatic station selection
The operator can easily select the
desired station using the touch-type
LCD panel.

Restricted access
Locks have been added to

crucial areas to help ward
off unauthorized access or
vandalism. The fuel cap and
side covers can be locked
with the engine key. The following areas can be locked.

Auto/Manual transmission selection switch
The operator can drive

comfortably using easily
changing travel direction
or gear range.
With the push of a single

switch, the operator can
select between manual or
automatic transmission
operation.
Note : Photos in this catalog may include optional equipment.
Return-to-carry control
The stop position of the
bucket can be optionally
set. This helps prevent
shock and damage while
providing more efficient
operation.

It will also help with
acceleration and maneuverability on rough terrain.
Restriction valve
Reduces the shock incurred when stopping the
boom, helping to provide
smooth operation.
Downshift switch (DS S)

Upshift switch (US S)
Allows the operator to
change gears without
using the shift lever. Each
press of the downshift
