ZHS Compact Excavator - Product Description

Powertrain and Design

The ZHS Compact Excavator, models 430 and 435, features an innovative Zero House Swing (ZHS) capability. This allows both the rear and front of the machine to remain within its width, minimizing the risk of collision with surroundings. Such a design reduces operating costs due to decreased potential for damage. Additionally, these models are equipped with the FastTrack drive system, offering high travel speeds and precise torque control.

Undercarriage and Hydraulics

Models 430 and 435 are powered by dedicated axial piston pumps that drive the travel motors, providing enhanced maneuverability and work efficiency. Both models feature a low-speed option of nearly 3 mph, facilitating quick transitions between projects. Their hydraulic systems, with a total capacity of 24 gpm (90.9 L/m), ensure excellent operational capabilities.

Operating Parameters

The 430 model enables a maximum reach of 200.7 in. (5097 mm) and a digging depth of 120.7 in. (3066 mm). The 435 model achieves a maximum reach of 230.1 in. (5846 mm) and a digging depth of 152.7 in. (3878 mm). Both models are equipped with engines rated at 42.8 hp (31.9 kW) and 49 hp (36.5 kW), providing substantial digging power.

Optional Equipment

Standard equipment includes a dual-cylinder dozer blade, which aids in grading tasks and enhances stability during load lifting. Additional options, such as extendable arms, can increase the maximum reach of the 430 model to 19 ft., 2 in. (5852 mm). A variety of attachments for construction and rental applications are also available.

Safety and Technical Data

The 430 and 435 models feature safety systems including four-post TOPS/ROPS structures and high-back suspension cabs. The operational weight of the 430 is 8024 lb. (3640 kg), while that of the 435 is 8662 lb. (3930 kg). All specifications comply with SAE standards and machines meet ISO 9001 quality requirements.
