Boom

Z45 GEN:2 Boom
Rugged, high-strength boom incorporates features to protect and extend the life of moving parts and components.

Precision welded boom is constructed with thick side plates that are reinforced by contoured transition plates.
Heavy-duty sliding cylinder guards protect exposed cylinder rods from damage.
Integrated boom light illuminates the work area and allows for safe and effective operation after dark.
Reliable single pin boom mount design for optimal durability and component life.
Undercarriage

The undercarriage of the Z45 GEN:2 compact excavator was designed with serviceability and longevity in mind.

Staggered tread and mandrel design combined with shorter track pitch reduces vibration.
Long tracks provide a smoother ride over rough terrain.
Tracks are short-pitched to reduce wear, fatigue and damage.
Angled crawler frame reduces soil buildup on the undercarriage, extending the life of rollers and tracks.

Engine

Z45 GEN:2 Engine
The Z45 GEN:2 compact excavator is built around a powerful, reliable emission-certified Tier IV Yanmar diesel engine.

Yanmar Tier IV certified diesel engine with 37.7 hp provides excellent balance in power and fuel conservation.
ECO Mode can be activated from the cab with a switch. When activated, the engine speed is reduced by 10%, reducing fuel consumption for lowered operating costs.
Auto Deceleration lowers noise and emissions levels when the hydraulic movement has not occurred for more than four seconds. This increases fuel economy and lowers operating costs.
Proven technology provides reliable operation and a fuel efficient system.
Easy-starting, even in cold weather without the need for block heaters or starting fluid.

Hydraulics

The advanced hydraulic system on the Z45 GEN:2 provides long-lasting, efficient power precisely when you need it.

Standard auxiliary proportional hydraulics give the operator infinitely variable control of the hydraulic flow.
Hydraulic system is designed to enhance engine performance, resulting in a more efficient system.
Two variable pumps and two gear pumps combine oil and redirect the flow to where it is needed, allowing for simultaneous operation without loss of power.
Smooth operation, even while using the boom and arm during turning.
Auxiliary hydraulic valve, tubing and hoses with flat faced coupler connections are standard equipment.
Two-way and one-way auxiliary flow valve with direct-to-tank bypass valve feature is standard equipment.
