At a gross weight of 16,000 kg, the trailer has an unladen weight of 7,710 kg, giving a payload of 8,290 kg. Body length is 13,600 mm at a width of 2,550 mm, making it longer than most trailers in this weight class and better suited to bulky rather than very heavy loads.
Class O4 requires an air brake system; the overrun brake of classes O1 and O2 is not sufficient above 10 tonnes. With a body length of 13.6 m and a moderate gross weight of 16 tonnes for this class, evenly distributing the load along the length is especially important to keep within permitted axle loads. Towing requires a category CE licence.
When buying such a long unit used, pay particular attention to chassis sag and corrosion, as well as the condition of axles, wheel bearings and suspension. The air brake system with its lines and coupling heads should be checked. On a body this long, it is also worth checking torsional stiffness in the middle section, where fatigue cracks show up first. Axles and brake components from major suppliers such as BPW or SAF make spare parts easier to source independently of the manufacturer, which matters more the older and more specialised a trailer like this becomes.
