Indications about the technical data
Empty weight, total weight, axle loads
The empt y w
eight of the vehicle with driver
(75 kg) was calculated according to the (EU)
1230/2012 standard. Optional equipment can
increase the empty weight, which means that
the possible useful load decreases propor-
tionally.
Trailer weight
The maximum permitted drawbar load on the
ball head of the towing bracket is 80 kg. WARNING
The values indicated for the maximum per-
mitt ed w
eights must not be exceeded.
There is a risk of accident and damage! 373
