2024 Ditch Witch® Hydro Excavators HX30 800 GAL
LOW PROFILE. HIGH PERFORMANCE.The powerful HX30 features a 24.8-hp Kubota® diesel engine for advanced performance and productivity on any mid-sized potholing, soft-excavation or cleanup tasks.
Features may include:
Productivity- Powered by a 24.8-hp (18.5-kW) Kubota diesel engine, the HX30 provides optimal suction power and water pressure for any mid-sized underground construction job. Patent-pending make/break seal design optimizes air flow for increased efficiency, and simplified plumbing. The HX30 also provides 66 percent more fuel capacity than its predecessor for improved productivity and fewer refueling stops during the workday.
- The HX30 is equipped with a 500-gal (1893-L) or 800-gal (3028-L) debris tank for any size cleanup job. The machine can be configured to accommodate operator controls on either the left or the right side to meet each contractor’s individual needs.
- Featuring a low-profile design, the HX30’s full unit height is reduced. This eases maneuverability and allows the unit to fit in height-restrictive areas, without compromising ground clearance so operators can more easily avoid ground-level obstacles. Patented, advanced door linkage automates lockout when fully opened, without requiring any additional effort from the operator.
- The HX models feature improved serviceability as all maintenance points are more accessible with a liftoff power pack door design. Standard on the HX30 is a cyclonic filtration system that minimizes filter cleaning frequency, while providing superior filtration, resulting in increased productivity. A heavy version equipped with a 400-gal water tank and a 24K GVWR trailer. 500-gallon configurations include a standard version equipped with a 200-gal water tank and a 12K GVWR, 14K GVWR or 17K GVWR trailer or a non-CDL configuration equipped with an 80-gal freshwater tank and 9.9K GWVR trailer.
- Hydraulic controls located at the rear of the units enhance operator visibility. An exclusive, hose-storage design allows operators to store the hose flat and straight inside the unit frame. The vac door also features convenient storage for unit tools, including the vac tube and digging lance.
