The Sherpa 100 Small is a compact, petrol-powered mini loader that brings mechanised material handling to spaces where larger machines simply cannot operate. Powered by a reliable Honda GX390 single-cylinder engine producing 11.7hp, the 100 Small combines a working width of just 760mm with the muscle to handle tasks that would otherwise be done by hand.
The hydrostatic drive system powers all four wheels through chain transmission, with skid steering providing the tight manoeuvrability that makes the Sherpa 100 series so effective in confined environments. The machine achieves a turning radius of 1,606mm, or 2,250mm with the bucket fitted, and a maximum proportional travel speed of 6 km/h. This gives operators the agility to work efficiently in narrow corridors, doorways, and restricted building sites.
The hydraulic system delivers 24 litres per minute at 190 bar, providing substantial working power for a machine of this size. A breakout force of 630 kg and tractive force of 290 kg handle loading, excavating, and shifting materials with ease. The hinge point coupling plate reaches a maximum height of 2,050mm, giving clearance for loading into skips, trucks, and containers. The 38-litre hydraulic tank ensures sustained operation during longer working sessions.
Weighing 570 kg with standard 4.00-10 tyres, the Sherpa 100 Small measures 1,520mm in length, 760mm in width, and 1,227mm in height without the bucket. This compact footprint allows the machine to pass through standard doorways and operate in areas inaccessible to conventional plant equipment. Ground clearance of 121mm and a wheelbase of 657mm contribute to stability across uneven ground. Narrow 20×11.00-8 tyres are also available as an option.
The air-cooled Honda GX390 engine is renowned for its durability and low maintenance requirements, with a 6.1-litre fuel tank providing extended running time between refuelling stops. The 12V electrical system with 45 Ah battery ensures reliable starting in all conditions.
Tipping loads with pallet forks at low position are 183 kg (straight) and at high position 124 kg (straight), with a 30% safety factor recommended. The machine is compatible with the full range of Sherpa 100 attachments including buckets, pallet forks with clamp, and hydraulic log grabs, making it a versatile workhorse for construction, demolition, landscaping, and agricultural applications.
