Part of the Hitachi Repair Manuals.
Wrenching on a Hitachi EX45? This 568-page Hitachi EX45 service manual PDF (OEM #KM510E-01) combines the full Technical Manual and Workshop Manual for the compact excavator, and it covers the EX12, EX15, EX22, EX25, and EX30 too. You get complete wiring diagrams and hydraulic schematics, a full troubleshooting section for electrical and hydraulic faults, and torque tables for the upperstructure, undercarriage, front attachment, and engine. Page after page of teardown procedures and exploded views walk you through pump, swing, and travel work bolt by bolt. Before you condemn a pump, run the operational performance test: measure relief valve pressure, cylinder cycle times, and swing speed against the factory tables. No more chasing wiring faults with a multimeter and a prayer. Bookmarked and text-searchable; download it, pull it up on your phone next to the machine, and get to work.
