The EH1700-3 with its innovative suspension system, unitized frame, improved power options, and upgraded electronics systems make it a high-performance hauler. It is also available with an additional 155 horsepower to better meet the rigorous demands of heavy-duty applications.
The new Hitachi Dash-3 mining trucks have a host of improvements. They feature:
- All-new, Hitachi-designed central controller with CanBus technology to monitor all systems
- Tier-2 engines
- Standard side and rearview camera system plus updated mirrors
- Newly designed air-ride seat
- Optional semi-active seat for enhanced comfort

Full-fabricated box-section main rails
Full-fabricated box-section main rails with section height tapered from rear to front. Narrow at the rear to support the load and wider at the front to allow truck stability and excellent engine access for servicing. One-piece top and bottom flanges eliminate cross-member tie-in joints and provide a large exposed center area for access to major components. Large radii at frame junctions are blended and ground to minimize stress concentrations.

The EH1700-3 body
Built for quarry and mining applications, the EH1700-3 body uses a .71-assets/inch (18 mm) floor plate and .3-assets/inch (8 mm) side plates made of 400 BHN high-tensile steel. This provides high resistance to wear and impact. A low loading height and large target area allow easy, quick loading by a variety of loading tools.

HI-TECH ROPS/FOPS Cab
The new HI-TECH (Hitachi Technology) ROPS/FOPS Cab features a center-integrated flat-panel style dashboard that positions the display and controls within close view of the road ahead. The cab uses double-wall construction and a three-point rubber iso-mount to absorb shocks and noise. The new high-powered heater provides ample BTUs for all environments and working conditions. The new Hitachi controller, built by Hitachi and also used in our excavators, will perform its function of processing input and output information with reliability during the most rigorous haul cycles.

ACCU-TRAC suspension
Our ACCU-TRAC suspension system delivers excellent maneuverability, even at higher speeds. The trailing arm layout offers greater ease of servicing while improving truck performance compared to suspended king-pin designs. The pivot mounting of the trailing arm design allows only axial input to the strut and allows wheel movement in the vertical plane only. The trailing arm suspension design also allows the front struts to be removed and installed without removing the front brakes or tires. This means fewer tools and less labor time are required, resulting in less downtime and higher productivity.
