Europetra EP 750

The register lists 57 versions with kerb weights from 140 to 350 kg at a uniform 750 kg gross vehicle weight. Lengths range from 3,300 to 7,370 mm, widths from 1,710 to 2,260 mm.

Within the class up to 750 kg – the limit up to which a trailer can be towed unbraked and without an additional licence category in most European countries – the range covers a broad spectrum from compact transport trailers to long versions for boats or bulky loads. The standardised ball coupling allows the trailer to be switched between different tow vehicles without requiring a special hitch.

When buying a used unbraked trailer of this kind, check above all the axle, wheel bearings and tyres for wear, the chassis and load bed for rust, and the ball coupling for play and smooth operation. On the long versions it is also worth checking the drawbar reinforcement and the condition of the jockey wheel and mudguards. Wear parts such as axles, couplings and lighting are available through the independent trailer-accessory trade, and the wheel bearings should be repacked periodically.
