Bundu All-Terrain Forklifts: Built for Africa’s Toughest Ground

When the terrain gets challenging, standard warehouse machines simply aren’t enough. That’s why Bundu all-terrain forklifts, distributed exclusively in Southern Africa by Shamrock Handling Concepts, are engineered to thrive where traditional forklifts struggle—on loose gravel, uneven soil, muddy yards and demanding outdoor work sites.

Designed for dependable operation in harsh African conditions, the Bundu G3 Series is available in 3-ton and 3.5-ton configurations, delivering a powerful blend of traction, stability, and proven Japanese engine reliability.

 

Advanced Traction with Limited Slip Differential (LSD)

One of the standout features of Bundu all-terrain forklifts is their Limited Slip Differential (LSD) system. This intelligent traction technology automatically distributes torque between the drive wheels, ensuring operators don’t lose momentum on wet, uneven or unstable ground.

“The LSD system prevents one wheel from spinning freely when it loses grip,” explains Kobus Cronje, General Manager at Shamrock Handling Concepts. “This allows operators to move confidently across grass, gravel, and slippery surfaces—even in rainy conditions.”

Unlike traditional 4×4 drivetrains, the Bundu 4×2 configuration with integrated LSD reduces mechanical complexity while still offering exceptional traction. The result?

  • Lower maintenance costs

  • Reduced tyre wear

  • Better control on rugged terrain

 

Powered by Reliable Isuzu Industrial Engines

Every Bundu all-terrain forklift is powered by the Isuzu 4JG2-PE01 industrial diesel engine, renowned for durability and fuel efficiency. Delivering 44.9 kW at 2,450 rpm and 186.3 Nm of torque, this four-cylinder engine is built for consistent performance under load.

A dual-stage air filtration system makes these units ideal for high-dust environments—perfect for agriculture, construction sites, timber yards, and other heavy-duty outdoor applications.

Operator-Focused Design for Long Shifts

The Bundu G3 Series is engineered not just for power, but comfort and usability. Standard features include:

  • Full suspension seating

  • Adjustable steering columns

  • Fold-back overhead guards

  • Tilt cylinder self-locking valves

  • Clear LCD instrument display

 

Operators benefit from a low-vibration chassis, reducing fatigue during long outdoor shifts. Optional enclosed cabs with heating or air conditioning offer even greater comfort in extreme weather.
