Fripaan ZSW

The register lists here 5 versions with unladen weights from 800 to 2,960 kg, gross weights from 3,500 to 11,000 kg, lengths from 7,880 to 10,480 mm and widths from 1,800 to 2,550 mm.

With gross weights from 3.5 to 11 tonnes, the ZSW range covers light to medium-heavy trailers used by smaller hauliers and trade businesses behind vans and light trucks; the span thus runs from small trailers to trailers for general cargo and building materials. Such smaller trailer brands chiefly supply trade businesses, rental firms and private users who value simple technology and affordable spare parts.

On a used trailer, check for rust on the frame and drawbar, the condition of the overrun brake device, axles, brakes and tyres, and the operation of the lighting and brake connections; spare parts for this smaller brand usually run through specialist trailer dealers. Tyre tread depth and age, and the condition of the jockey wheel and safety chain, also belong in a pre-purchase check.
