Rivakka – other models: the collective page of Finnish forestry and skidding trailers outside the named ranges, from 3517AKV to 3523TR, 3,500 kg gross weight, 840 to 1,014 kg unladen weight
This page gathers the trailers of Finnish maker Rivakka that the register could not assign to a named range – the four types 3517AKV, 3518AKV, 3523TL and 3523TR belong to the range of forestry and skidding trailers towed behind tractors for work in the forest and timber transport.

The register lists here 4 versions with unladen weights from 840 to 1,014 kg, a gross weight of 3,500 kg, lengths from 5,400 to 6,484 mm and widths from 2,240 to 2,390 mm.
With a uniform gross weight of 3.5 tonnes, all four versions sit at the upper edge of trailer category O2; with unladen weights under 1,100 kg, this leaves a payload of around 2.5 tonnes, typical of skidding trailers for hauling round timber from the forest to the forest road. In Finland, such trailers mostly run behind agricultural tractors in part-time forestry work and at forestry contractors. Such a uniform gross weight is typical of forestry trailers designed around a single type-approval category.
On a used skidding trailer, the condition of the loader crane, where fitted, corrosion and wear of the stake bunk structure, the condition of the axle and brakes, and the tightness of the hydraulic lines all matter. The PTO and hydraulic couplings to the tractor and the condition of the stakes and chains are also worth checking before purchase; parts usually run through the Finnish forestry-equipment trade.

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.
