At an unladen weight of 3,480 kg, the SPEED CRANE 3.5 uses up almost the entire 3,500 kg gross weight: the crane mounted on it is itself the load, leaving virtually no room for extra cargo. At a length of 9,830 mm and four wheels on a 6,090 mm wheelbase, the weight is spread over a long base, while the 2,070 mm width stays well below the permitted maximum. Its design top speed of 80 km/h is lower than the usual 100 km/h.
A trailer whose tare weight accounts for almost the entire gross weight is not carrying extra cargo but a permanently mounted crane for lifting work on site. The lower top speed is typical of crane-mounted bodies with a high centre of gravity. Such a trailer is towed with driving licence category BE, depending on the combination's permitted gross weight.
When buying used, the crane itself should be the focus: hydraulic cylinders and hoses for leaks, the outriggers for wear, and the supporting structure around the crane mounting for cracks. The overrun brake, axle suspension and tyres should be checked along with a current inspection record for the lifting equipment, required regularly on crane-mounted trailers.

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.
