With an unladen weight of 750 kg, the payload comes to 2,750 kg, a full three quarters of the gross weight, a very favourable ratio for a simple utility trailer. At 7.35 m long and 2.55 m wide, the Jodmet-Jet offers a generous load area; its four wheels stand on two axles with 780 mm spacing between the axles of the tandem set.
Category O2 trailers usually run with an overrun brake, acting purely mechanically through the sliding drawbar on both axles. Towing behind a car only requires licence category B, as long as the combined weight does not exceed 3,500 kg; heavier towing vehicles require category BE. The tandem axle set spreads the wheel load and stabilises the light trailer under full load, a simple and robust layout typical of general-purpose trailers in this weight class.
When buying a used trailer from the 2017 to 2020 build years with a tandem axle set, uneven wear between the two axles is worth checking: uneven tyre wear points to a misaligned axle mount. The overrun mechanism must slide smoothly in and out, and the checklist should also cover brake cables and linings and the frame along its full length for rust and cracks, as well as the lighting and tyre tread depth. The floor covering is also worth checking for splits or rot where cargo has rubbed against it.
