Hyundai Construction Equipment has introduced the HX90A, its largest compact excavator yet, bridging the gap between its compact and full-size excavator lineup. Designed for urban and residential job sites, the 9-ton machine features a compact tail swing and boom swing function, allowing efficient operation in tight spaces. The HX90A is powered by a 65-horsepower Yanmar engine with auto-regeneration technology, ensuring consistent performance and fuel efficiency.
Versatile Design for Urban Construction
The HX90A compact excavator is engineered for maximum flexibility, making it an ideal choice for narrow streets, residential areas, and confined workspaces. The boom swing feature enables left and right offset movement, enhancing maneuverability when working near structures or obstacles.
For added stability and efficiency, Hyundai offers a standard large-angled dozer blade or an optional four-way angle dozer blade. This allows operators to level ground, backfill trenches, and clear debris more effectively. A dual-locking quick coupler improves attachment security, while four-way auxiliary hydraulics let users switch between multiple attachments without changing hydraulic lines.
Advanced Cab Features for Operator Comfort
The HX90A’s cab is designed for all-weather use, featuring a steel construction for durability and expanded interior space for enhanced operator comfort. A tiltable left-side console makes cab entry more accessible, while a safety lock system prevents accidental operation when entering or exiting. When the safety lever and left-side console are raised, all hydraulic functions are disengaged, enhancing job site safety.
A 7-inch LCD touchscreen monitor provides easy access to essential machine functions, including auto idle shutdown, maximum power mode, and travel speed settings. Hyundai has also integrated a password-protected security system, preventing unauthorized operation.
Operators can opt for a full-color rearview camera, which integrates with the display for improved visibility and safety. Other interior upgrades include a heated suspension seat, adjustable armrests, and pilot-operated hand levers for smooth control of the dozer blade and track extension.
Easy Maintenance and Long-Term Durability
Hyundai has streamlined maintenance for the HX90A compact excavator, ensuring minimal downtime and long-lasting performance. The machine features wide-opening covers and hoods, providing quick access to key service points. A centralized lubrication bank simplifies routine maintenance, while a radiator and oil cooler with a specialized fin design prevents clogging, making cleaning and servicing easier.
The HX90A is backed by HD Hyundai’s extensive warranty program, which includes:
- Three-year, 3,000-hour standard warranty
- Five-year, 10,000-hour structural warranty
- Five years of Hi MATE telematics for remote monitoring and diagnostics
Availability and Industry Impact
The Hyundai HX90A compact excavator is set to reshape the compact equipment market, offering powerful performance, operator-focused design, and advanced safety features. With its versatile attachments, efficient hydraulics, and robust construction, this machine is an excellent solution for contractors working in confined spaces.
