Scharzmuller – other models: the collective page of trailers outside the named ranges, PA2/ZJ and T-SERIE, 3,500 to 5,250 kg unladen weight, 18,000 kg gross weight
This page gathers the Scharzmuller trailers the register could not assign to a named range – with such a small model programme this amounts to a large part of the brand's catalogue. Listed here are the PA2/ZJ and the T-SERIE, two semi-trailers. The spelling Scharzmuller in the register stands for Schwarzmüller of Freinberg in Upper Austria, a maker of semi-trailers and trailers for transport, tipper bodies and construction-site applications.

The register lists here 2 versions with unladen weights from 3,500 to 5,250 kg, a gross weight of 18,000 kg, lengths from 8,710 to 9,300 mm and a width of 2,550 mm.
With a gross weight of 18 tonnes against unladen weights of 3.5 to 5.25 tonnes, the versions fall into the medium-duty segment of semi-trailers typical for construction and transport applications behind trucks and articulated tractor units. Lengths of around 8.7 to 9.3 metres and a uniform width of 2.55 metres match the frame of more compact semi-trailers.
On a used example of such a semi-trailer, the condition and wear of the axles and brakes, the function of the suspension, rust on the frame and kingpin, and the state of tyres and rims all count. The electrics and lighting should be checked for completeness, and parts for Schwarzmüller bodies run through the manufacturer and the independent commercial-vehicle parts market.

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.
