Jawa Other models

The register lists 40 versions with unladen weights from 540 to 13,560 kg and gross weights from 1,300 to 21,000 kg. Lengths are recorded for 14 of the 40 models and run from 8,320 to 13,650 mm, widths from 1,350 to 2,600 mm.

The wide range from just over half a tonne unladen to more than 13 tonnes shows that the Jawa name covers both light trailers and heavy tandem and tridem versions for transporting machinery and bulk goods. Such collective pages with very mixed weight classes typically arise when a builder has run several product lines in parallel over decades that converge in the register under one brand name.

On the lighter models, check the axle, drawbar and sides; on the heavy versions also the frame, welds, brake system and, on tippers, the hydraulics and cylinders. Rust on load-bearing parts needs particular attention on older build years. Parts for axles and brakes are available through the general commercial trailer trade, brand-specific parts sometimes only used or remade to order.
