This Hitachi ZX240 LC is a used log loader — sometimes referred to as a timber harvester carrier or forestry excavator — a purpose-built machine designed to grip, sort, and stack timber in logging yards, sawmills, and forest harvesting operations. Hitachi is a globally recognised manufacturer of heavy construction and forestry equipment, producing excavators and purpose-adapted machines that serve industries ranging from civil construction to forestry and land management.
This 2009 machine is located in Quebec, Canada, and is offered at $80,347. It is equipped with a Denharco 4400 attachment and a top saw, configuring it fully for timber handling and processing work directly from the carrier.
The unit has accumulated 18,758 hours of total service, which reflects extensive working life. Notably, the engine has been rebuilt and carries approximately 3,000 hours since that rebuild, and the hydraulic pump has also been rebuilt with around 1,000 hours on it since its overhaul. These figures indicate that the two most critical mechanical components — the power unit and the hydraulic system — have both received significant refurbishment and carry meaningfully lower hours than the machine's overall total, which is an important consideration for buyers assessing residual service life and near-term maintenance outlook.
