With an unladen weight of 2,990 kg, payload comes to 5,010 kg, close to two-thirds of the gross weight. At 8.88 m long and 2.55 m wide, the G9000 TBPL sits on a chassis long for its weight class, built for a balanced ratio of unladen weight to load volume, suited to bulkier goods rather than dense, concentrated loads.
From class O3 upwards, trailers are generally fitted with air brakes rather than the simple overrun brake of light trailers. Towing it as a combination requires driving licence category C1E or CE in the EU, depending on the combined train weight, plus a professional driver qualification for commercial use.
When buying a trailer built in 1999, check the axles and brakes for wear and play, check the air lines for leaks at the coupling heads, and look for rust on the frame, especially at the longitudinal beams and axle mounts. Given the load bed's balanced payload for its length, it is also worth checking the load floor for wear from changing goods, testing the lighting system for correct function, and checking the coupling and electrical connectors for secure, corrosion-free contact.
