Product description

Three-axle trailer with a load platform almost eleven metres long

The suspended tridem offers a load platform up to 10,78 m long and 2,52 m wide, with a payload of 11.170 kg. The reinforced 4-mm steel floor, raised side profile edges and foldable load racks are included as standard.

Long platform with a moderate gross weight

That is what makes this trailer special: 10,8 m of load platform with a permissible gross weight of just 15 t.

Why this combination makes sense: Bales are bulky but comparatively light. With straw square bales, the platform is full long before the payload limit is reached. A longer trailer carries more bales per load – a higher gross weight, on the other hand, offers no benefit for straw.

The three axles distribute the load, keep axle loads low and help protect farm tracks and grassland.

11.170 kg – what that means in bales

Bale typeWeight per baleNumber up to payload limit
Straw square balesapprox. 300 kgaround 37
Hay square balesapprox. 400 kgaround 28
Silage round bales600 – 900 kg12 to 18

The long platform comes into its own with straw and hay, while the payload limits the number of silage bales.

Reinforced 4-mm floor with raised profile edges

  • The thicker floor can withstand concentrated loads – pallet feet, fork tines and machinery set down on it. A bale trailer is rarely loaded with bales alone.
  • The raised side profile edges keep the bottom layer in position, rather than letting it slide over the edge when braking or cornering.

Platform extension included as standard

The length increases from 9.880 to 10.780 mm – almost a metre more.

Important: The platform extension is not permitted for use on public roads. It is intended for use in fields and on farm premises.

Rounded, foldable load racks

  • Front and rear – the load is secured in the direction of travel and at the rear.
  • Rounded – bales are easier to slide on and are not torn on sharp edges during loading.
  • Foldable – for bulky loads, side loading and space-saving storage.

Alternative optional equipment: fixed load racks, or a version without load racks and platform extension.

Lashing strap holes on the platform and load racks

Securing the load is no mere formality with bales: round bales roll, square bales shift, and in an emergency stop either can hit the tractor cab. Lashing points are located on the platform edges and also on the load racks – allowing the upper layers to be secured as well.

Optional: two front-mounted lashing strap reels are available, making it much quicker to strap loads down and release them – a noticeable time saving with a 10,8 m loading length.

Parabolic suspension and 40 km/h

  • Protects the load. Silage bales wrapped in film are sensitive to impacts – any damaged film means spoiled feed.
  • Protects the trailer. Unsuspended axles transmit every bump to the frame.
  • Allows speeds of 40 km/h. This makes a difference on longer journeys.

For 40 km/h approval in Germany, plastic mudguards are required in front of and behind the rear axle; in Austria, an additional mudguard is required behind the front axle. Both are optional equipment.

Approval without loss of payload

Noteworthy: Even with EU type approval, the permissible gross weight remains 15.000 kg. Unlike many related models, there is no reduction resulting from the approval route.

About the tyres

Diagonal tyres 400/60-15,5 are fitted as standard. The manufacturer recommends them for typical agricultural use; if you mainly drive on tarmac, radial tyres are the better choice – they are available as an alternative.

Additional equipment

  • DE, AT or EU type approval including documents
  • Dual-line air brakes with ALB or ALB Premium
  • Version without load racks and platform extension
  • Fixed load racks instead of foldable ones
  • Trailer couplings from various manufacturers
  • Toolbox
  • Side underrun protection in accordance with 89/297/EEC
  • Lashing strap reels, 2 front-mounted
  • Plastic mudguards (required for 40 km/h approval)
  • Spare wheel holder with winch, spare wheel
  • Warning triangle for slow-moving trailers

Applications

Agriculture and forage production, agricultural contractors, straw trading and bale logistics, equestrian businesses and riding centres, biogas plants, landscaping and local authorities.

Operating notes

  • Clarify the approval route before ordering.
  • Do not use the platform extension on public roads.
  • Mudguards are required for 40 km/h approval.
  • Always secure the load with lashing straps – even on short journeys and even when the load is tightly packed.
  • With round bales, ensure they cannot roll; the load racks do not replace lashing straps.
  • Observe the permitted height: with load racks, the trailer is 2.899 mm high.
  • With an overall length of 12 m, check access routes and turning space in advance.
  • Retighten the wheel nuts after the first few hours of operation and regularly thereafter.
  • Choose tyres to suit the application.

Frequently asked questions

How long is the load platform?

9.880 mm, or 10.780 mm with the standard platform extension. However, the extension is not approved for use on public roads.

How much can the trailer carry?

11.170 kg with a permissible gross weight of 15.000 kg – even with EU type approval, the gross weight remains 15.000 kg.

How many bales will it carry?

It depends on the type of bale: around 37 straw square bales, about 28 hay square bales or 12 to 18 silage round bales – for silage, the payload is the limiting factor; for straw, it is the platform space.

Why choose a three-axle trailer with a gross weight of just 15 t?

Bales are bulky but light. With straw, the platform is full long before the payload limit is reached – a longer trailer carries more bales per load. The three axles also keep axle loads low and help protect farm tracks.

What tractor do I need?

90,2 PS or 61 kW.

What is required for 40 km/h approval?

In Germany, plastic mudguards in front of and behind the rear axle; in Austria, an additional mudguard behind the front axle. Both options are optional equipment.

What is the 4-mm floor for?

It can withstand concentrated loads – pallet feet, fork tines and machinery set down on it. A bale trailer is rarely loaded with bales alone.

Are the lashing strap reels worth it?

Yes, with a 10,8 m loading length – they make strapping loads down and releasing them noticeably quicker.
