The SDLG B877F is a backhoe loader — one machine combining a front loader bucket with a rear digging arm, so a single operator can dig, trench, load and carry without swapping machines. Priced at KSh 8,600,000 on the official October 2026 price list, it sits in the working fleet of utility contractors, county crews, farmers and plant-hire businesses across Kenya. This guide sets out the B877F's verified specification status, what the listed price does and does not include, delivery lead times and warranty, and the workloads where a backhoe loader earns its keep.
SDLG B877F Specifications: Verified Status
Two published sources differ on this model. The Trust Partners website lists 70 kW engine output, 5,337 mm digging depth and 8.0–8.3 tonnes operating weight; the client catalogue lists approximately 92 kW, approximately 4.3 m digging depth and 8.4 tonnes. The October 2026 official price list resolves the digging depth at approximately 4.3 m with a 1.0 m³ loader bucket. Engine output remains contested and is confirmed from the official configuration-specific datasheet on your quotation — we do not average or pick the favourable number.

Verification date on quotation: the SDLG desk records the datasheet revision and stock-unit nameplate against every B877F quote. If you are comparing the B877F against a competing backhoe, ask us for the datasheet and we will send the exact configuration sheet.
Price and Availability in Kenya
Listed price: KSh 8,600,000 (official Trust Partners Geo-Group equipment price list, effective October 2026, KSh inclusive as indicated). The list notes prices and availability are subject to change without prior notice, and a written quotation is confirmed within 24 hours of inquiry. Treat the list figure as indicative, not a firm offer.
The list also confirms the commercial terms buyers ask about most:
- Lead times — stock machines deliver in about two weeks, inspected and work-ready; factory orders run eight to twelve weeks.
- Warranty — one year or 2,000 hours standard factory warranty, honoured in Kenya, extendable to two years.
- Financing routes — financing, lease-to-own, trade-in and hire-before-you-buy packages are available; approval, rates and terms rest with the lender, not the dealer.
- Delivery — low-loader delivery and commissioning to any site in Kenya, quoted by destination.
Product and Offer structured data is applied on this site only where a genuine, visible sale offer with matching price, condition and stock exists; this guide publishes the list price as indicative data. Stock status at the Ruai yard changes weekly — call +254 718 686 967 or WhatsApp the SDLG desk to confirm the current unit before fixing your start date. For a project-level budget figure, use the cost-estimate calculator; the SDLG financing hub sets out deposit, tenor and documentation expectations.
Applications: Where the B877F Earns Its Keep
1. Utility trenching
The rear arm digs water, sewer and fibre trenches while the front bucket backfills and loads spoil — one machine completing the trench cycle. Our trench digging guide and backfill compaction standards guide cover the method.
2. Road and shoulder maintenance
Loading murram, grading shoulders, clearing drainage lines and patching after rains — the daily county and estate workload. See the road maintenance and pothole repair guide.
3. Material handling and loading
The 1.0 m³ bucket loads trucks, stockpiles sand and ballast, and cleans sites — the loader role that pure excavators cannot do at travel speed. Our wheel-loader versus backhoe-loader comparison helps decide between the two.
4. Farms, estates and institutions
Manure and feed handling, fence-line and drainage digging, dam and water-pan support works — one machine for crews that cannot justify two. For livestock-site earthworks see our feedlot and dairy site preparation guide and irrigation canal excavation guide.
5. Plant-hire fleets
The B877F is a hire-fleet staple because it travels between small jobs and covers two machine roles. Our hire cost calculation guide and current hire pricing frame the ownership-versus-hire decision.
6. County and municipal works
County public-works departments and town councils run backhoes for drain clearance, murram loading, market and bus-park repairs and water-point maintenance — the dispersed, small-scale jobs where mobilizing an excavator and a loader costs more than the work itself. One machine, one operator, road travel between sites: that is the backhoe's structural advantage in public maintenance, and why it remains the default utility machine for Kenyan county fleets.
Attachments and Setup
The B877F's economics improve when the rear arm and front bucket are matched to the work. The listed configuration carries a 1.0 m³ loader bucket; the backhoe runs trenching and grading buckets, with a hydraulic breaker, auger or pallet forks quoted separately for contractors who need them. Three checks pass before any attachment is ordered: coupler and pin geometry for the arm, hydraulic flow and pressure for breaker or auger duty, and safe working loads at the machine's actual configuration — all confirmed from the official datasheet. For utility crews the dealer also advises on trench widths and bucket selection so the arm's cycle matches the pipe or duct being laid, rather than over-digging and paying twice for backfill.
Ownership, Service and Support
Buying through an authorized dealer matters most after the invoice. Per the October 2026 price list, Trust Partners Geo-Group backs every machine with genuine SDLG parts from Ruai yard stock, factory-trained technicians and a 24-hour response commitment, plus emergency excavator, grader and breaker dispatch nationwide. Daily care for a backhoe loader is deliberately simple — greasing points, tyre and fluid checks, bucket and arm pin inspection — and the handover pack states service intervals from the official manual for your unit. A dedicated B877F drivetrain and daily-maintenance guide is planned in this blog series; until it publishes, the workshop walks every buyer through the daily checklist at handover. Delivery is by low-loader to any site in Kenya, quoted by destination, with commissioning and operator familiarization included.
Buyers outside Nairobi should plan around delivery logistics: the machine arrives by low-loader, is commissioned on site, and the operator walk-through happens before the first shift. Allow offloading space and a short run-in period on the first day; the workshop remains reachable on the 24-hour response line for the first weeks of operation.
B877F vs the Alternatives
Against a mini or standard excavator, the backhoe wins where road travel and loading matter and loses in tight-access digging. Against an excavator-plus-truck combo, the true-cost comparison depends on job size and haul distance — our backhoe versus excavator-and-truck analysis works the numbers. Attachment ecosystems — breakers, augers and more — are covered in our attachments and accessories hire guide. The wider fleet context lives on the backhoe, dozer and compact equipment hub, within the full SDLG range; the SDLG vs CAT and Komatsu comparison hub explains how we build evidence-based brand comparisons. On mixed fleets the B877F works alongside the rest of the SDLG line — SDLG wheel loaders for high-volume loading, SDLG excavators for heavy digging, SDLG motor graders for road finishing and SDLG compaction rollers for the surface course.
