Part of the Hitachi Repair Manuals.
This is the factory set for the Zaxis ZX160LC, ZX180LC and ZX180LCN: the Workshop Manual (W1F1E-01) for teardown of the swing device, main pump, travel motors, undercarriage and front attachment, the Troubleshooting and Operational Principle technical volumes, the full Isuzu 4BG1 engine manual (AA-4BG1TCG-01, CC-4BG1TCG, BB-4BG1TRG), and fold-out hydraulic and electrical circuit sheets per model. What makes it worth the money is the wear judgement tables: every inspection item prints the new value next to the throw-away limit. Swing bearing play 0.2 to 1.25 mm new against a 2.0 to 3.05 mm limit. Compression 3.04 MPa nominal against 2.5 MPa repair limit. You measure, you compare, you know whether to buy parts.
