Tough machine for a tough job.
Although the ZX210F-3 is our smallest forester, it is certainly no weakling. From its tough, next-class-up swing and travel systems, to the strengthened, rugged upper-structure and heavy-duty undercarriage, you’ll feel confident taking on any woods.
Unlike retrofitted excavators patched together for logging use, Hitachi Foresters are built from the ground up in a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility specifically for forestry work. The purpose-built processing front eliminates the need for boom-tip and hoist-cylinder adapters. With the ZX210F-3 in your fleet you can count on efficiency, reliability and durability.

Features
Engine
Durable structure and undercarriage
Hitachi foresters feature one of the most aggressive guarding packages available. It includes heavy-duty side and upper-deck panels supported with reinforced bulkheads, guards to protect the hydraulic-oil filler cap and exhaust stack, a heavy pump door with support bracket, sealed underdecking panels and a tough three-piece purpose-built engine enclosure.
- Strong boom-tower arrangement, thick base plates, after-welding machining in critical areas and large-diameter swing bearings make the ZX210F-3 extremely durable.
- Robust structures, next-size-up components, drive systems and heavy-duty track chains deliver efficiency and durability.
- The ZX210F-3 comes standard with rock guards, belly pan, travel motor guards and log deflector.
Hydraulics
- New heavy-duty booms and arms are ready to take on all applications, whether it be building roads or processing or handling trees.
- The ZX210F-3 has the same proven hydraulic systems found in Hitachi’s construction and mining excavators.
Simple controls
The rugged, space-saving monitor is compact but easy to read.
- The ZX210F-3 Forester represents the very best in productivity and efficiency, with highly refined, computer-chip-controlled engine/hydraulic performance.
- The side-entry cab has integral vertical bars and polycarbonate windows, meeting all safety requirements for forestry applications while maximizing visibility.
Easy to maintain
External screening, sealed cooler compartment and optional automatic-reversing fan help eliminate the downtime associated with cooling system cleaning.
Three-piece heavy-duty engine enclosure, new under-house protection system, new hydraulic filter guard, muffler protection and heavier right rear door all work to keep the machine’s valuable components safe from damage.rough.
Sturdy, well-placed handrails and eruption plate are located to make access for routine service safe and easy.
- Remote-mounted engine and hydraulic oil filters and dynamic test ports help make routine maintenance a breeze.
- The cooling package is laid out side by side, with a swing-out AC condenser for easy servicing. And the standard 1048 liter (277-gallon) fuel tank allows for extended run times between fill-ups.
- Integrated in the left-side guarding, the debris management system keeps materials and debris from entering the cooling-package area to enhance your total productivity. The improved design pulls the air entering the cooling system through fine screens – filtering out particles too large to pass through.
Comfortable cab
The durable cloth seat features a reclining back with adjustable armrests and headrest for extra comfort.
- Depending on your application, the cab comes mounted on either a 178-mm (7-inch) fixed or 1219-mm (48-inch) hydraulically tilting riser. All models have optional rear-entry cabs with integral 1219- or 1828-mm (48- or 72-inch) risers.
- An optional air-ride heated seat offers low-frequency suspension with automatic weight adjustment, variable-suspension damper, double-locking roller slide rails, seat-cushion extension and tilt and adjustable armrests.
Configurations
- Hitachi foresters are available as road builders, harvester/processors, live-heel log loaders, butt-n-top log loaders and stroke delimber carriers.
- With a hydraulic system designed specifically for Waratah heads, Hitachi Forester processors deliver top-of-the-industry performance, productivity and uptime.
