Manual No. EM8R6-1-4
Read this manual carefully to learn how to operate
and service your rigid dump truck correctly. Failure to
do so could result in personal injury and/or rigid dump
truck damage.
This manual should be considered a permanent
part of your rigid dump truck and should remain with
the rigid dump truck when you sell it.
This rigid dump truck is of metric design. Meas-
urements in this manual are metric. Use only metric
hardware and tools as specified.
Write product identification numbers in the Ma-
chine Numbers section. Accurately record all the
numbers to help in tracing the rigid dump truck should
it be stolen. Your dealer also needs these numbers
when you order parts. If this manual is kept in the rigid
dump truck, also file the identification numbers in a
secure place off the rigid dump truck.
Warranty is provided as a part-Hitachi’s support pro-
gram for customers who operate and maintain their
equipment as described in this manual. The warranty
is explained on the warranty certificate which you
should have received from your dealer.
This warranty provides you the assurance that Hitachi
will back its products when defects occur within the
warranty period. In some circumstances, Hitachi also
provides field improvements, often without charge to
the customer, even if the product is out of warranty.
Should the equipment be abused or modified to
change its performance beyond the original fac-
tory specifications, the warranty will become void
and field improvements may be denied. Setting fuel
delivery above specifications or otherwise overpow-
ering rigid dump trucks will result in such action.
Moreover, when replacement parts are required, be
sure to use genuine Hitachi parts. Failure to do so
may result in voiding the w
