Knauss – other models: the collective page of site trailers outside the named ranges, the BW 3,5 and BW 4,0 model line, Azur 590, unladen weights from 1,050 to 1,600 kg, lengths from 5,500 to 7,300 mm
This page gathers the trailers listed under the name Knauss that the register could not assign to a named range. Several versions carry the addition BAUWAGEN, or its Dutch spelling BOUWWAGEN, directly in the model name, such as BAUWAGEN BW 3,5, BW 3.5 BAUWAGEN and KNAUSS WAUWAGEN, alongside the codes BW35, BW 4,0 and W04 and the separately named model AZUR 590 and the version SUDWIND.

The register lists 12 versions with unladen weights from 1,050 to 1,600 kg, gross weights from 1,300 to 2,000 kg, lengths from 5,500 to 7,300 mm and widths from 2,180 to 2,400 mm.
Site trailers of this kind serve as mobile accommodation, storage or break rooms on building sites and are moved between work sites with an ordinary tow vehicle; lengths of up to 7,300 mm give room inside for several work stations or a small workshop.
When buying used, the body and roof for damp and rust, the tightness of windows and doors, the chassis axle and brake system, the interior fittings, and the electrical wiring and lighting are worth checking. The standalone models AZUR 590 and SUDWIND follow a different naming scheme from the BW range and represent different versions within the same collective page. The notation BW 3.5 with a full stop and BW 3,5 with a comma denotes the same model name in the register. On versions with a width close to 2,400 mm, the seals between the side-wall panels are worth an additional check.

What to check before buying
- Search the frame and welds at the axle mounts — that is where cracks start.
- Check the brakes and the last inspection in the papers.
- Work the gross weight against the towing vehicle before buying.
- Compare the chassis number with the papers.
- Look at the floor, cover or body from the inside — rust does not show from outside.
