Format – other models: the collective page of tipping semi-trailers outside the named ranges, with the type MAHW 9-9 A and the OPL series, 18 to 39 tonnes gross weight
This page gathers the Format trailers the register could not assign to a named range. The range comprises the type MAHW 9-9 A and the OPL series (OPL 10-10, OPL 12-18, OPL 12 27TC40), whose digit sequences point to the axle count and build size of the tipping semi-trailers.

The register lists here 6 versions with unladen weights from 3,233 to 8,025 kg, gross weights from 18,000 to 39,000 kg, lengths from 6,900 to 13,550 mm and widths from 2,450 to 2,550 mm.
Tipping semi-trailers of this size carry bulk goods such as gravel, sand or excavated soil in construction and earthworks and are towed by a semi-trailer tractor; the weight span from 18 to 39 tonnes covers the usual range of two- and three-axle tipping semi-trailers. Depending on axle count and body height, payload varies between light building-site tippers and three-axles run continuously in bulk-goods transport.
On a used tipping semi-trailer, the condition of the tipping body and tipping cylinder, the tightness of the hydraulics, frame and axles, brakes, and the kingpin and landing legs count; rust and wear on the tipping mechanism are the most common faults. On inspection it is also worth checking the sides, the body lining and the steps and handrails. Spare parts are supplied by the commercial-trailer trade.
