- The HX75 is equipped with a 74-hp (55.2-kW) Kubota Tier 4 Final engine for boosted power and performance on any large-scale underground construction jobs.
- The machine provides 20 percent more fuel capacity than its predecessor for improved productivity and fewer refueling stops during the workday.
- New with the HX vacuum excavation line, a patent-pending make/break seal design optimizes air flow for increased efficiency, and simplified plumbing.
- Advanced sound reducing technology creates minimal disturbance in noise-sensitive areas.
- An auto-clutching feature disengages the water pump when water is not in use, allowing full system power to the blower for improved productivity.
- A now standard, reverse-flow feature allows quick and easy spoil offloads for improved productivity.
- A standard, cyclonic three-stage filtration system cleans the air before it reaches critical components. It is comprised of the debris tank, cyclonic filter, and 0.5-micron washable vacuum filter - offering the industry’s best filtration for maximum protection of key components.
- With the best-in-class 1,315-cfm (37.2m3/min) blower, the large, yet low-profile HX75 is ideal for microtrenching and slot trenching applications as well as potholing, large cleanup tasks and traditional excavation jobs.
- The HX75 is available with either a 500-gal (1893-L) or 800-gal (3028-L) debris tank to meet the requirements of any size job.
- 800-gallon configurations include:
- A standard configuration equipped with a 200-gal water tank and a 20K GVWR trailer.
- A heavy configuration equipped with a 400-gal water tank and a 24K GVWR trailer.
- 500-gallon configuration includes:
- A standard configuration equipped with a 200-gal water tank and a 17K GVWR trailer.
- All trailer configurations are NATM compliant and are offered with an optional toolbox for extra storage.
- An optional jib boom is available on all HX75 configurations and has exclusive dual articulation, providing the widest range of motion in the industry, as well as a hose restraint, which helps control the unit’s hose while working.
- An optional power boom, available on all HX75 configurations (excluding the 800-gal standard configuration), features an advanced design that reduces manual labor for the operator. The boom is hydraulically powered with a 330-degree rotation and includes a self-locking gear, acting as a boom brake, to restrain motion of the boom and maintain its desired position.
- The machine can easily be configured to accommodate operator controls on either the left or the right side to meet each contractor’s individual needs.
- Featuring a construction-grade, low-profile design, the powerful HX75 is compact for easy navigation in urban or congested jobsites, without sacrificing power or performance.
- Featuring a low-profile design, the machine’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.
- An exclusive, lockable hose-storage design allows operators to store the hose flat and straight inside the unit frame – a direct customer-driven enhancement. The vac door also features lockable, convenient storage for unit tools, including the vac tube and digging lance.
- Patented, advanced door linkage automates lockout when fully opened, without requiring any additional effort from the operator.
- The HX75 features hydraulic controls at the rear of the unit, leaving less opportunity for damage to the unit by enhancing operator visibility.
- An optional dual work light features two LED floodlights in the back of the vac unit for use in dark or night conditions.
- The HX models feature improved serviceability as all maintenance points are more accessible with a liftoff power pack door design, improving access to all service points.
- Standard on the HX75 is a cyclonic filtration system that minimizes filter cleaning frequency, while providing superior filtration, resulting in increased productivity.
- An optional spare tire with a carrier allows easy access to a spare when needed, reducing downtime.
