Klaeser Other models

The register lists 3 versions here with unladen weights from 5,940 to 9,860 kg, gross weights from 27,000 to 34,000 kg, lengths from 11,400 to 12,110 mm and widths from 2,500 to 2,550 mm.

At gross weights of 27 to 34 tonnes and lengths over 11 metres, the Kläser trailers belong to the semi-trailers for long-haul freight, used behind articulated tractors for general and bulk cargo. With gross weights well above 10 tonnes, all versions fall into EU vehicle category O4 for trailers and semi-trailers, which may only be towed by suitably approved tractor units.

When buying used, check the frame and chassis rails for cracks and deflection, the axles, braking system and overrun brake device, the condition of the tarpaulin or side panels, and wear on the fifth-wheel plate; spare parts for axles and brakes are available through the independent commercial-vehicle trade. Underrun protection, mudguards and the condition of the brake and lighting connection lines are also worth checking, along with tyre age via the DOT date code. Complete vehicle documents, a valid registration and a current roadworthiness and safety inspection also matter when buying used.
