KONKEL Other models

The register lists here 5 versions with unladen weights from 280 to 550 kg, gross weights from 1,300 to 2,700 kg, lengths from 6,360 to 7,340 mm and widths from 2,100 to 2,170 mm.

With gross weights of 1,300 to 2,700 kg, all versions fall into class O2, the braked trailer class behind cars and vans. The great length of 6,360 to 7,340 mm at a comparatively low unladen weight points to narrow, long transport trailers for boats or long goods rather than compact cargo trailers. With a category B licence, trailers of this weight class require the additional code 96 or category BE once the combined weight of tow vehicle and trailer exceeds 3,500 kg.

On a used example, axle and wheel-bearing condition, the function of the overrun brake and its linkage, rust on frame and drawbar, the state of lighting and plug, and tyres and rims all count. On the long versions, checking torsional stiffness and the rollers or keel rollers is also worthwhile; parts for such a small brand usually run through independent trailer workshops. The condition of the coupling head and the safety cable is also worth checking at every viewing.
