Mechanical characteristics and use

The 3-axle FRAMAR semi-trailer is designed for the transport of heavy machinery and large equipment. The presence of hydraulic ramps allows for quick and safe loading, while the low floor reduces the center of gravity, increasing stability during transport.

Usage procedure:

1. Place the semi-trailer on a flat surface and connect it to the tractor.
2. Operate the rear ramps via the tractor's PTO to lower them to the right angle.
3. Load the machinery or equipment, using the ramps for easy ascent.
4. Secure the load with tie-down straps or chains.
5. Check that the load is well balanced and that all safety devices are activated before leaving.

Maintenance and safety regulations

To ensure maximum efficiency and safety of the semi-trailer, it is essential to carry out regular maintenance:

• Check the condition of the hydraulic ramps and the operation of the PTO.
• Check the wear of the parabolic leaf springs and suspensions.
• Lubricate moving parts, including ramp pins and latch mechanisms.
• Inspect tires and brakes regularly.

In the absence of CE certification, it is possible to adapt the semi-trailer to current regulations through a review by a specialized technician, thus guaranteeing compliance with current safety standards.

How to evaluate if it is a good used one

The 3-axle FRAMAR is in excellent general condition, with all components functioning and the possibility of viewing and testing. Among the points to check:

• Structural integrity of the floor and ramps.
• Operation of the hydraulic system.
• Condition of the suspension and chassis.
