Teijo – other models: Finnish semi-trailers and low-loaders outside the named ranges, axle code AKS, unladen weight 3,600 to 8,800 kg, gross weight 16,000 to 36,000 kg, up to 13,750 mm length
This page gathers the Teijo trailers the register could not assign to a named range. The type designations follow Finnish registration logic: the code AKS gives the axle count – 2-AKS for a two-axle, 3-AKS for a three-axle trailer – followed by codes such as VP and PP for the body type and a number sequence for length and weight class. By gross weight the models fall into class O4, the range of heavy semi-trailers and low-loaders over ten tonnes, built to run behind tractor units or as draw-bar trailers.

The register lists here 17 versions with unladen weights from 3,600 to 8,800 kg and gross weights from 16,000 to 36,000 kg. The lengths range from 6,000 to 13,750 mm, the widths from 2,400 to 2,600 mm.
In this weight class, semi-trailers and multi-axle low-loaders dominate, for carrying machinery, building materials and general cargo in Finnish road haulage, which, given the long distances and raw-material and forestry traffic, depends on correspondingly heavy and long trailers able to carry oversized loads.
On used examples, axle, brake-system and suspension condition, rust on the frame and side members, the condition of the load bed and tarpaulins, and the function of lighting and pneumatic connectors call for checking; on the long versions the steering of the rear axles and the condition of the lifting rams as well.

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.
