    Switch for a thumb ?

    Do you mean to switch the rocker switches to give pressure to the hydraulic thumb?

    Yes ... Icon looks like a thumb ... What model Hitachi is this switch on ?

    Hydraulic lockout? Also looks like the lever on the left of the seat in all excavators you have to raise to operate. Never ran a Hitachi.

    Model number please. Is it a Zaxis ? It seems if you own a Hitachi, you drive them. From a Hitachi Operators Manual. I thought it was hilarious that they explain how the travel pedals work backwards when the tracks are turned around.

    Looks like maybe heavy lift? The icon looks to me like the stick moving.
