At Hitachi Construction Machinery Africa (HCAF), we understand that farming and forestry are more than just industries—they’re livelihoods. You work the land with purpose, precision, and pride. That’s why we’ve engineered equipment that works just as hard as you do. Introducing the Hitachi BX100 Backhoe Loader and our range of mini excavators—purpose-built to meet the demands of Southern African land users.
BX100: One Machine. Endless Possibilities.
In the world of farming and forestry, versatility is everything. The Hitachi BX100 backhoe loader is your all-in-one solution for trenching, loading, pushing, digging, and clearing. Whether you’re laying irrigation, managing feedlots, or maintaining forestry access roads, the BX100 is equipped to deliver. With a powerful engine and fuel-efficient load-sensing hydraulics, the BX100 offers the strength of a much larger machine in a compact, easy-to-own package.
The 1.1 m³ loader bucket (or 1.0m3, 6-in-1 bucket) and 0.18 m³ backhoe bucket combine to give you maximum versatility and productivity with minimal hassle. With excellent ground clearance and a tight turning radius, you can move confidently across rough, uneven terrain.
Mini Excavators: Precision Where It Matters
Our mini excavator range—includes the ZX55U-5A, ZX65USB-5A and ZX70-5G—gives you power in compact form. These machines shine in tight spaces, ideal for trenching, fencing, land prep, and infrastructure work around farms or forested areas. With responsive hydraulics, low fuel consumption, and quick cycle times, you get more work done—faster and smarter.
Designed with the Operator in Mind
You spend hours in your machine—we make sure those hours are comfortable and productive. Our cabs offer exceptional visibility, intuitive controls, and ergonomic seating, so you can operate with confidence and ease.
