The SDLG L936H is a wheel loader — the articulated yellow machine with a bucket on the front that stockpiles sand and ballast, loads tippers and feeds batching plants — in SDLG's 3-tonne H-series class. It is the construction-grade step above the compact mini loaders, built for crews whose daily volumes have outgrown yard machines but do not yet justify a 5-tonne loader. Sold in Kenya by Trust Partners Geo-Group Ltd and quoted in writing within 24 hours per the October 2026 price list terms, it serves batching plants, sand and aggregate sites, estates and construction fleets across the country. This guide sets out the L936H's verified specification status — two published sources currently differ, and we show both — how pricing works in Kenya, and the applications where this class earns its keep.
Specifications: Verified Status
Two published sources differ on this model. The Trust Partners website lists 11,750 kg operating weight, a 1.8 m³ bucket and 105 kW; the client catalogue lists approximately 11,000 kg and shows the L936H in a 3-tonne payload class alongside the L938H. These may be different model years or market configurations. Per campaign policy your quotation carries the official configuration-specific datasheet figure, dated against the stock-unit nameplate — and both source values are published here rather than blended:
| Specification | Website-listed | Catalogue-listed | Published value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Operating weight | 11,750 kg | ≈11,000 kg | Pending datasheet verification |
| Bucket capacity | 1.8 m³ | Per configuration | Configuration confirmed on quotation |
| Engine output | 105 kW | Per configuration | Pending datasheet verification |
| Payload class | 3 t class | 3 t class | 3-tonne class (consistent across sources) |
| Transmission and axles | To be confirmed from official datasheet before order | ||
| Hydraulic system | To be confirmed from official datasheet before order | ||
Verification date on quotation: the SDLG desk records the datasheet revision and stock-unit nameplate against every L936H quote. If you are comparing the L936H against a competing loader, ask us for the datasheet and we will send the exact configuration sheet, not a brochure average.
Price Position in Kenya
Not itemized on the October 2026 price list. The nearest published anchors on the same official list: the 3.5-tonne L935H at KSh 6,400,000 and the 5.0-tonne L953H at KSh 9,200,000, inclusive as indicated — placing the 3-tonne-class L936H between them by class logic, with the exact figure, bucket and configuration itemized on a written quotation confirmed within 24 hours of inquiry. Indicative only, not a firm offer; prices subject to change without prior notice per the list's terms.
The commercial terms buyers ask about most are already verified on that list: lead times of about two weeks on stock machines and eight to twelve weeks on factory orders; the one-year/2,000-hour factory warranty honoured in Kenya and extendable to two; financing, lease-to-own, trade-in and hire-before-you-buy packages; and low-loader delivery to any county, priced by destination. For a project-level budget figure use the cost-estimate calculator; the SDLG financing hub sets out the packages, and our deposit guide answers the upfront-cash question. Stock status changes weekly — call +254 718 686 967 or WhatsApp the SDLG desk to confirm the current unit.
Applications: Where the L936H Earns Its Keep
1. Batching plants and aggregate yards
The L936H's home ground: loading sand, ballast and crushed stone into hoppers and stockpile management around the plant. Pass-matching to hopper size and spillage discipline decide productivity; the plant-side workflow is covered in our road-base and earthworks guides, and the earthwork and base preparation guide sets the material context.
2. Sand, ballast and small-quarry work
Loading 10 m³ tippers from ground stockpiles on moderate daily volumes — the pass-math favours the 3-tonne class over smaller machines once volumes grow, and stays economical below 5-tonne territory. For ownership-versus-hire framing, see current hire pricing and the hire cost framework.
3. Estate, commercial and institutional sites
Material handling on schools, hospitals, residential estates and industrial parks — loading, stockpile shifts, site clean-up — one machine covering the loading role that the loader-versus-backhoe comparison helps allocate correctly.
4. Construction tipper loading
Feeding tippers on building and road jobs where a 3-tonne class balances cycle time and machine cost; heavy daily volumes stepping to 5-tonne loaders are covered by the 5-tonne comparison.
The Pass-Math That Sizes the Class
Strip the buying decision to cycles. A 10 m³ tipper of dry sand at roughly 1.6 tonnes per cubic metre carries about 16 tonnes; at a realistic effective payload the 3-tonne class loads it in six to seven passes, while a sub-2-tonne machine needs ten or more and a 5-tonne machine does it in four to five at a higher machine cost per hour. At forty to sixty loads a day, the 3-tonne class's cycle count lands one to two hours of loader time daily — the productivity band where it pays for itself over the smaller machine without paying for idle 5-tonne capacity. Run the same arithmetic on your material density and truck count before the quotes arrive; the numbers, not the badge, place you in the right class.
Bucket Selection and Setup
Bucket choice follows material density and truck size: general-purpose buckets for sand and loam, heavier construction buckets for gravel and blasted material, with capacity matched so the machine loads efficiently without exceeding rated payload on dense material — the same fill-factor discipline our productivity guides apply. The dealer confirms bucket options, coupler type and any payload implications from the official datasheet before order, and quotes attachments such as forks or high-dump options separately so you can stage purchases.
Ownership, Transport and Support
The L936H class delivers by low-loader with route and permit checks verified per trip, and commissioning includes operator familiarization on the machine's actual controls. Ownership carries the dealer's published package: genuine SDLG parts from Ruai yard stock, factory-trained technicians, the 24-hour response commitment and the extendable warranty per the October 2026 list. Daily care is the standard loader discipline — greasing, tyre and fluid checks, pin and bucket inspections — with service intervals from the official manual in the handover pack. Fleet context for mixed operations sits on the SDLG wheel loader hub, within the full SDLG range — excavators for digging, graders and rollers for road work, and the backhoe and compact range for utility crews — with evidence-based brand comparisons for buyers weighing competitors first. The farm-and-yard side of the smaller class is covered by the published L918F farm guide, and the same series' dedicated L918F versus L936H comparison weighs the two classes directly.
Who Should Buy Something Else
Buyers on farms, feedlots and tight yards should price the mini-loader class first — the published farm guide covers it. Buyers loading 10 m³ tippers all day, every day, should price the 5-tonne class. And buyers whose work is trenching and utility travel rather than loading should weigh a backhoe before any loader. The honest recommendation is always by daily tonnes, material and site space — never by model number alone.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the SDLG L936H and what class is it?
The L936H is SDLG's 3-tonne-class H-series wheel loader — the articulated loading machine with a bucket on the front that stockpiles, loads trucks and feeds hoppers across construction, aggregates and estate work. It sits above the compact mini-loader class and below the 5-tonne loaders in the SDLG line sold in Kenya by Trust Partners Geo-Group Ltd.
What are the L936H's weight and engine figures?
Two published sources differ: the Trust Partners website lists 11,750 kg operating weight, a 1.8 m³ bucket and 105 kW, while the client catalogue lists approximately 11,000 kg and shows the model in a 3-tonne payload class. Your quotation carries the official configuration-specific datasheet figure, dated against the stock-unit nameplate — we publish both source values rather than blend them.
What does the SDLG L936H cost in Kenya?
The L936H is not itemized on the October 2026 price list; the nearest published anchors are the 3.5-tonne L935H at KSh 6,400,000 and the 5.0-tonne L953H at KSh 9,200,000, inclusive as indicated. The L936H is quoted in writing within 24 hours of inquiry, with the exact figure, bucket and configuration itemized; indicative only, not a firm offer, prices subject to change without prior notice.
Which jobs suit the L936H best?
Batching-plant aggregate loading, small-to-mid quarry and sand work, estate and commercial-site loading, and construction crews feeding 10 m³ tippers on moderate daily volumes. The pass-math decides: a 3-tonne class loads a 10 m³ sand tipper in roughly six to seven passes against ten or more for a sub-2-tonne machine.
How do I choose the bucket?
Bucket choice follows material density and truck size: a general-purpose bucket for sand and loam, heavier construction buckets for gravel and blasted material, with capacity matched so the machine loads efficiently without exceeding its rated payload with dense material. The dealer confirms bucket options, coupler type and any payload implications from the official datasheet before order.
Is the L936H related to the L918F I have seen on farms?
Same brand family, different class: the L918F is the sub-2-tonne mini loader aimed at farms, feedlots and tight yards, while the L936H is the 3-tonne construction-class machine. The series' dedicated comparison article weighs the two classes against each other by application and price position.
Can I finance the L936H in Kenya?
Yes — the October 2026 price list states financing, lease-to-own, trade-in and hire-before-you-buy packages are available across the range. Approval, rates and terms rest with the lender; a written machine quotation is the first document any lender asks for, and the deposit question is answered by the same process.
Where do I verify the exact specifications before ordering?
Ask the SDLG desk for the official configuration-specific datasheet and the stock-unit nameplate photo. Every quotation records the datasheet revision against the machine — that document, not any web page, is the authority at delivery, which matters on a model whose published figures currently differ between sources.
