BRAUN Other models

The register lists here 12 versions with unladen weights from 500 to 830 kg, gross weights from 1,200 to 2,000 kg and widths from 1,760 to 2,250 mm.

The type range thus covers exactly the braked trailer class between 1.2 and 2 tonnes, typical of horse, livestock and general-purpose trailers towed behind cars and small vans; on this brand the weight is written directly into the type name rather than only emerging from the data sheet. For registration behind a car, besides the trailer's gross weight the tow vehicle's rated towing capacity is also decisive, since it sets the real limit for the load towed.

On a used example, the condition of the overrun brake and its linkage, axle and wheel bearings, rust on frame, drawbar and side walls, lighting and plug, and tyres and rims all count; on livestock or horse trailers the floor covering and partitions as well. Parts for such small brands usually run through independent trailer workshops. On versions with an overrun brake, the adjustment of the brake linkage and the condition of the brake linings are also worth checking before the first drive.
