Description
The 2019 Hitachi ZX26U-6 CR is a high-performance 2.7-tonne class mini excavator that features a Zero-Tail-Swing (U) layout
This allows the rear counterweight to pivot entirely within the width of its tracks, protecting nearby structures
The "CR" (Comfort/Rubber) spec indicates a fully enclosed, heated cabin combined with heavy-duty rubber tracks.
It is widely considered the maximum sized machine you can legally tow on a standard 3,500 kg plant trailer setup in the UK and Europe

Hydraulic System
System Design: Hitachi HHX (High-Performance Hydraulic System) with variable displacement axial piston pumps
Main Hydraulic Flow Capacity: 2 x 30.0 L/min + 1 x 19.2 L/min

Core Mechanical and Safety Highlights
Boom Cylinder Guard: Features a V-shaped steel guard over the main lift cylinder to completely shield the hydraulic rod from rock impacts or bucket scrapes.
Proportional Control Joysticks: Outfitted with electro-hydraulic slider switches directly on the joystick heads. This gives the operator fine, finger-tip control over auxiliary lines and boom swing rather than using clumsy floor pedals.
Muffler Filter System: Designed with an advanced exhaust filter that limits soot and smoke emissions, making it highly applicable for indoor trenching and confined foundation spaces.
