Product description

Hooklift trailer with a payload of 16.4 tonnes

The tandem trailer with pendulum suspension handles containers with an external length of 5.400 to 6.400 mm, sets them down and tips them at up to 53°. The hook is compatible with containers to DIN 30722 and SS 3021.

Both standards included as standard

The hook works with containers to both common standards, with no conversion and no extra charge.

What this means: Containers used in waste management generally comply with DIN 30722, while those used in agriculture and municipal services often follow the Scandinavian SS 3021 standard. This gives you peace of mind when working with different partners or buying used containers.

Please note: The standard mechanical locking system is designed for containers to DIN 30722. Hydraulic locking systems are available as optional equipment.

Pendulum suspension – what it means

The tandem chassis has pendulum suspension with rigid axles. The axles compensate for uneven ground, and both remain under load.

Why it works in yards and on building sites: On uneven ground, the pendulum design keeps both axles in contact with the ground – distributing the load evenly.

The difference compared with parabolic suspension: The sprung version rides more smoothly on the road and is gentler on the vehicle and its load. It is the better choice for predominantly road use, while pendulum suspension is sufficient for use in yards and on building sites.

One chassis, any number of bodies

Instead of several specialist trailers – tipper, flatbed, silage trailer, water tank – you keep one chassis in the yard and swap the bodies as needed.

  • Containers stay where they are needed. The builders' skip stays on site and fills up while the trailer is already busy with other work.
  • No waiting during loading. The container is set down, filled and collected later.
  • Lower investment than buying several complete trailers.

Understanding the two lifting capacity figures

PositionLifting capacity
Hook frame extended10.700 kg
Hook frame retracted6.400 kg

Why the difference: The hook frame acts as a lever. When extended, it engages the container further forward; when retracted, the load's centre of gravity is less favourably positioned.

What this means in practice: A full container is first engaged with the frame extended when being pulled on – this is when the full lifting capacity is available.

Hydraulic rear axle support

When setting down or picking up a container, the entire weight shifts to the rear. The support takes this load and keeps the trailer stable – together with the suspension lock.

Underrun protection adjustable to three positions

It can be mechanically adjusted to suit the container length.

Why this is necessary: The trailer handles containers from 5.4 to 6.4 m long – a one-metre difference. The underrun protection must be adjusted to suit the rear of each container, otherwise it will either be ineffective or get in the way.

Tipping at 53°

The trailer does more than set containers down; it also tips them. The tipping system has a mechanical adjustment for unloading and tipping.

A note from the manufacturer: When using it as a tipper, the container may need to be moved backwards to ensure the load is distributed correctly.

Operation: three configurations

OptionTractor requirements
standardat least 3 hydraulic connections
Electro-hydraulic control1 pair of connections
Own hydraulic system with PTO drivePTO + power supply

When is an independent hydraulic system worthwhile? When the trailer is used with different or older tractors that do not have enough spool valves. In that case, the tractor only needs a PTO and power supply.

Optional hydraulic container locking

Two versions are available, both with electro-hydraulic locking:

  • Connected to the axle support – requires at least three hydraulic connections
  • With independent control – requires at least four connections

The advantage over mechanical locking: The driver does not need to get out to lock the container – a noticeable time saving when changing containers frequently.

110 PS – the lowest figure in its size class

That is remarkably low for a payload of 16.4 tonnes. For comparison: The T285/1 requires 125 PS, as does the T286.

This means the trailer can be used with tractors in the 120 PS class – while still offering a 16-tonne payload.

Approval

Approval routePermissible gross weightSpeed
Individual approval, Germany21.000 kg40 km/h
EU type approval18.000 kg25 km/h
AT approval–25 km/h only

The difference is twofold: 3.000 kg less gross weight and a speed limit of just 25 rather than 40 km/h. If you need 40 km/h with EU type approval, you will need the T285/1.

Optional equipment

  • DE, AT or EU type approval, including documents
  • K80 ball hitch
  • Telescopic support leg, optionally with gearbox
  • Premium two-line compressed-air braking system
  • Electro-hydraulic control
  • Own hydraulic system with oil tank, gearbox and PTO drive
  • Hydraulic container locking in two versions
  • LED lighting
  • Rear brake and hydraulic connections
  • Hydraulic connections on the hook
  • Trailer couplings, manually sprung or Rockinger
  • Side underrun protection
  • Ribbed aluminium mudguards (mandatory for public road use)
  • Spare wheel, plastic tube for vehicle documents
  • Warning triangle for slow-moving trailers

Applications

Local authorities and municipal depots, construction companies, waste management and green waste logistics, landscaping, agriculture with interchangeable bodies, equipment hire, forestry businesses.

Operating notes

  • At least three hydraulic connections are required on the tractor – or one of the optional control systems.
  • Check the towing vehicle's nose weight: up to 3.000 kg.
  • Observe the permitted container dimensions: 5.400 to 6.400 mm external length, max. 2.550 mm width and 2.500 mm height.
  • Adjust the underrun protection to the container length.
  • Lock the suspension before setting down or picking up a container, and use the rear axle support.
  • When setting down or tipping, ensure the ground is level and firm.
  • Do not tip containers beneath overhead power lines – with a container, the trailer is up to 3.650 mm high.
  • Check the locking system before every journey.
  • Keep everyone clear of the area behind the trailer when loading or unloading a container.
  • AT approval is only possible for 25 km/h.
  • Aluminium mudguards are mandatory for public road use and are optional equipment.

Frequently asked questions

Which containers are compatible?

Containers with an external length of 5.400 to 6.400 mm, a maximum width of 2.550 mm and a height of 2.500 mm – to DIN 30722 and SS 3021. Roller spacing is 1.060 mm.

How much can the trailer carry?

16.360 kg with a permissible gross weight of 21.000 kg, including a container of the recommended length. With EU type approval, the gross weight is 18.000 kg – but the speed is then limited to 25 km/h.

How much can it lift?

10.700 kg with the hook frame extended and 6.400 kg when retracted. The hook frame acts as a lever – when extended, it engages in a more favourable position.

How does it differ from the T285/1?

Pendulum suspension instead of parabolic suspension, no trailing axle, simpler hydraulic control and 2.000 kg less permissible gross weight. In return, 110 rather than 125 PS is sufficient, and it costs considerably less.

How many hydraulic connections does the tractor need?

At least three: for the suspension lock, tipping frame and hook frame. With electro-hydraulic control, one pair is sufficient; with an independent hydraulic system, only a PTO and power supply are needed.

Is hydraulic container locking worthwhile?

Yes, if you change containers frequently – the driver does not need to get out to lock them. Two versions are available: one requires three hydraulic connections, the other four.

Can the trailer travel at 40 km/h?

Yes, with individual approval in Germany. With EU type approval, the limit is 25 km/h, as it is with AT approval.

Which tractor do I need?

110 PS or 80,8 kW, a coupling rated for 3.000 kg nose weight, and 18 litres of oil at 200 bar.
