With an unladen weight of 1,030 kg, that leaves a payload of 2,470 kg. The width is 2,400 mm.

Nose weight and coupling type decide which towing vehicle may pull a trailer like this, and on unbraked versions the towing vehicle's permitted trailer weight limits it further. That keeps the trailer usable even for owners without a heavy-goods licence, provided the towing vehicle is equipped for it.

On a viewing, the overrun mechanism together with the handbrake cable and damper are among the first points to check. The coupling head or kingpin shows heavy wear where the trailer has seen intensive use. Lighting, wiring harness and plug connectors are common weak points on older trailers. Tyres and rims should be checked for age and even wear, especially if the trailer has stood unused for a while. On bodies with tarpaulins or side boards, the condition often only shows up on close inspection for leaks and deformation. Paperwork and the validity of the roadworthiness test belong to every viewing. The brake system and brake lines deserve particular attention, as this is an area often neglected in everyday use.
