The register lists here 5 versions with unladen weights from 350 to 930 kg, gross weights from 1,350 to 3,500 kg, lengths from 6,730 to 9,700 mm and widths from 2,100 to 2,550 mm.

With gross weights of 1.35 to 3.5 tonnes, all versions fall into the braked trailer class towed behind vans and stronger cars; lengths reaching just under 9.7 metres show that alongside compact units, longer platform or special bodies are also part of the programme. For registration behind a car, besides the trailer's gross weight the tow vehicle's rated towing capacity is also decisive.

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 small brands usually run through independent trailer workshops rather than a maker's own network. On versions with an overrun brake, the adjustment of the brake linkage and the condition of the brake linings are also worth checking before the first drive.
