At 2,400 mm wide, the PV004 has an unladen weight of 5,350 kg, giving a payload of around 19,650 kg. The 660 mm figure given in the data is the axle spacing within a multi-axle bogie, not the overall wheelbase, which would have to be considerably longer at this payload.
Class O4 requires an air brake system, and towing requires driving licence category CE. The high ratio of payload to unladen weight shows a design that was, for its time, very sparing with material, the kind of heavy-haulage engineering of the 1960s aimed at maximum load for a limited weight of its own.
When buying a trailer this old used, check the chassis for material fatigue and cracks at the welds, look at the axles for earlier modifications, and check the brake system for an upgrade matching today's standards. Registration eligibility in the relevant country should also be checked before buying, since older designs are not everywhere registered unchanged.
