KUMO Other models

The register lists here 15 versions with unladen weights from 440 to 720 kg, gross weights from 1,300 to 2,000 kg and widths from 1,560 to 2,080 mm.

With gross weights of 1,300 to 2,000 kg, all versions fall into class O2, the braked trailer class behind cars and vans. With 15 individually listed types over a comparatively narrow weight span, Kumo counts among the brands with a finely graded model programme that stays close in basic size. 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. Parts for such a small brand usually run through independent trailer workshops rather than a maker's own network; before the first drive the adjustment of the brake linkage and the condition of the brake linings are also worth checking.
