With a gross weight of 39 to 45 tonnes, the series falls into EU vehicle class O4 for trailers over 10 tonnes. The register lists 5 versions with unladen weights of 7,320 to 15,480 kg. Lengths range from 10,650 to 14,050 mm and widths from 2,450 to 2,550 mm.

Trailers of this series, with unladen weights reaching over 15 tonnes, are among the heavier versions in the register and are used in European heavy haulage, where they compete with comparable series from other European makers. Lengths from over 10 to over 14 metres are typical for hauling long and heavy goods.

When buying used, check the drawbar, towing eye and frame for cracks, as well as the axles, brake system and suspension for condition and tightness. On extendable frame sections, also check the locking mechanism and the condition of the slide rails. Also important are the tightness of the compressed-air connections and the condition of the lashing points. Spare parts for axles and brake systems are available through the general commercial vehicle parts trade.
