At a length of 7,250 mm and a width of 2,430 mm, it weighs 4,500 kg unladen and carries 13,500 kg of payload, exactly three-quarters of its gross weight. The very short wheelbase of just 1,310 mm against a length of 7,250 mm shows a closely spaced axle group under the centre of the body – the layout of a centre-axle trailer, which carries its load over its own axle group rather than on a front coupling.
Centre-axle trailers of this weight class load the tow vehicle's coupling much less than a drawbar trailer of the same weight with a front axle and therefore track more calmly, especially under heavy load. It runs with an air-brake system, required from class O3 upward.
What counts on a used example is the condition of the axle bearings and the closely spaced axle group, the state of the brake system, rust on the frame and side members, the condition of the tow eye and its bearing, and – particularly important on a centre-axle trailer – even loading, since incorrect load distribution on this layout directly changes the nose weight on the coupling. Given the age of the vehicle, welded repairs on the frame near the axle group are also worth a close inspection, since they can mask earlier overload damage.

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.
