At a length of 10,900 mm and a width of 2,500 mm, it weighs 6,980 kg unladen and carries 25,020 kg of payload, more than three-quarters of its gross weight – a ratio typical of a heavy trailer for general heavy cargo. The 8,700 mm wheelbase against a length of 10,900 mm places the axle group well to the rear, with a correspondingly long section ahead of it for the load area.
Trailers of this weight class run with an air-brake system, and towing the combination requires a category CE licence. An axle group set well to the rear with a long section ahead of it is a common design in heavy-trailer construction, allowing a continuous, lower load space ahead of the axle line.
What counts on a used example is the condition and tightness of the load platform or sides, the state of the brake system and axle bearings, rust on the frame and side members, especially around the rear axle group, and the tread depth and load capacity of the tyres when fully loaded. Axles and brake components from major suppliers such as BPW or SAF make sourcing spare parts easier on a vehicle of this age. On a vehicle of this age, it is also worth checking for welded repairs to the frame around the axle mounts, which can mask earlier overload damage.
