Fiat-hitachi EX60-5, EX60LC-5, EX80-5 Parts Catalog – 506 Pages of Factory Specs

Ordering the wrong part for a Fiat-hitachi excavator costs you billable hours and drives up parts return headaches. I have seen guys guess at a part number from a worn-out decal and end up with a $400 hydraulic line that doesn’t fit. This Fiat-hitachi EX60-5, EX60LC-5, EX80-5 Parts Catalog kills that guesswork. Factory-issued, 506 pages, and straight from Hitachi’s engineering. If you are working on any of these three models—EX60-5, EX60LC-5, or EX80-5 (which the foreword on page 4 clarifies is the North America designation for the EX60-5)—this is the parts bible you need on the shop desk. Automotive Industry Overview might give you context on the industry, but this catalog gives you the exact part numbers.

What’s Inside This 506-Page Parts Catalog?

The table of contents breaks the machine into major assemblies: UPPERSTRUCTURE, UNDERCARRIAGE, MONO BOOM ATTACHMENTS, SHORT REACH FRONT, OFFSET BOOM PARTS, TOOLS, NAME-PLATE, and a PARTS INDEX. Each section contains exploded diagrams with part numbers keyed to a list that includes quantities, service codes, and serial number applicability. Page 5 of the catalog lays out how to read the parts index: every part has a symbol, part number, name, quantity, and service code. You get the same level of detail that Hitachi factory engineers used when they built the machine. Need a specific seal for the swing motor? You will find it under UPPERSTRUCTURE with a reference to the correct part number and any service code restrictions (like H for precision parts or D for assembly-only replacement).

Upperstructure and Undercarriage: Two Key Sections

The UPPERSTRUCTURE section covers everything above the turntable: cab, engine components (except the engine itself—that is a separate BD30 diesel catalog), hydraulic pump, control valves, and swing gear. The UNDERCARRIAGE section handles the track frame, rollers, sprockets, and idlers. For example, if you need track roller part numbers for an EX60LC-5 with long tracks, the catalog marks those parts with (LCトラック) to distinguish them from standard-track versions. The same applies to boom options: MONO BOOM ATTACHMENTS, SHORT REACH FRONT, and OFFSET BOOM PARTS each have their own sub-sections. You get the exact part numbers for the specific front attachment your machine carries. No generic aftermarket chart guessing which pin diameter you have.

How to Read the Parts Index – Page 5

On page 5, the catalog explains the service codes printed next to each part number. These codes tell you whether a part is precision-handling only (H), must be replaced as an assembly (D), or is part of a service kit (K). There is also a code for oversized and undersized parts (OS, US) listed on the line after the standard size. If you see an ‘S’ code, that part is a service-only supply item—not installed at the factory. That detail alone can save you from ordering a seal that never came on the machine. The parts index at the back of the catalog lists every part number in numerical order with a page reference. When you have a part number from the diagram, the index confirms the page so you can double-check the exploded view. That is the kind of cross-referencing that aftermarket catalogs never give you.

Service Codes: What They Mean for Your Repair

Service codes are not optional reading. If a part has a ‘W’ code, it requires local modification to install—call Hitachi before you order. ‘Z’ means engine-related. ‘OP’ means optional, not standard equipment. Your machine might have an OP part that is not listed in the standard diagram; you need this catalog to see that it exists. The serial number applicability (called 号機 in Japanese) is printed at the top of each page. Every part number row can have its own serial range, so you can pin down exactly which revision level your machine is. For parts that have a change-over date (marked with a D, e.g., D97/04 for April 1997), the catalog shows the exact cut-in point. If your machine was built before that date, you get the old part number. After it, the new one. No guesswork.

Why Factory Parts Catalogs Beat Aftermarket

I have seen aftermarket parts catalogs that combine three different model years into one page with a footnote saying “may fit.” That is not how you run a repair shop. This OEM catalog is model-specific for EX60-5, EX60LC-5, and EX80-5. The serial number range starts at 050001 and is printed on the cover. The Japanese and English text ensures you can hand it to any tech and they can understand the part numbers and quantities. The only thing this catalog does not include is the engine parts—Hitachi directs you to a separate BD30 diesel catalog for those. Everything else on the machine is in these 506 pages. Related manuals: HITACHI EX60-5 EX60LC-5 EX80-5 Parts Catalog (same model, different binding), Fiat-hitachi 850-3, 850LC-3, 870H-3, 870LCH-3 Parts Catalog for larger excavators, and Fiat-hitachi ZX50U-2 Parts Catalog – 120 Pages of OEM Specs for compact models.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this catalog cover the engine?

No. The foreword on page 4 references a separate Nissan Diesel BD30 engine parts catalog.

How do I know which part fits my serial number?

Each page has a serial number range at the top. Part rows can have their own ranges, including change-over dates marked with D. Compare your machine’s serial (e.g., P050001) to the ranges shown. The catalog uses the Japanese term 号機 for serial number. The front cover shows the starting serial – 050001. If yours is later, you need to check the individual part rows for updates. This is the exact process Hitachi uses in their own service centers, and it ensures you get the correct revision every time. There is no substitute for working through the serial numbers page by page.

Are the diagrams in color?

Black and white line drawings. Part numbers are listed in tables next to each callout number. Color would be nice, but the lines are crisp and the numbering system is consistent across all sections.

What is the difference between EX60-5 and EX80-5?

According to page 4, EX80-5 is the name used for North America (USA, Canada) for the same machine as EX60-5. The parts are identical except where marked with <80> for EX80-5-specific options. So if you have an EX80-5, this catalog covers your machine exactly.

Bottom line: if you maintain or repair any of these three excavator models, get this catalog on your bench. It is 506 pages of factory part numbers, service codes, and serial-number-specific applicability. You will stop chasing bad aftermarket sources and start picking the right part off the shelf.
