The dimensions are 13,900 mm in length and 2,500 mm in width. The wheelbase is 8,700 mm.
Fifth-wheel or drawbar load and the design of the coupling decide which tractor unit suits a trailer like this. At this weight class the trailer is built for long-haul or heavy and abnormal-load work, not for occasional private use.
On a viewing, the brake cylinders, lines and the air system's tightness are among the first points to check. The coupling head or kingpin shows heavy wear where the trailer has seen intensive use. Lighting, wiring harness and plug connectors are common weak points on older trailers. Tyres and rims should be checked for age and even wear, especially if the trailer has stood unused for a while. On bodies with tarpaulins or side boards, the condition often only shows up on close inspection for leaks and deformation. Paperwork and the validity of the roadworthiness test belong to every viewing. The brake system and brake lines deserve particular attention, as this is an area often neglected in everyday use.

What to check before buying
- Search the frame and welds at the axle mounts — that is where cracks start.

- 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.
