Only couplings which are approved by us may be used as trailer
couplings. The following trailer couplings can be ordered
ex works as special equipment:
Spherical
coupler - order code:
1D6: For trailing loads up to max. 2 000 kg during braking, with 12%
angle of gradient.
The
permitted externally applied load is 100 kg.
The permitted max. total weight indicated in the car documents
must not be exceeded. The actual weight of the
trailing
load must be
lower than that of the trailing vehicle.
Adhere to
the following instructions when a trailer coupling is to be retrofitted:
• The specific national regulations are to be considered
• It has to be ensured that the required freedom of operation of
the trailer behind the tractive unit is maintained
(DIN 74058)
• The standard radiator and fan has to be replaced by reinforced
variants (according to PR-No. 1D7)
• The vehicle has to be tested by the responsible technical testing
authority for motor traffic.
Note:
1. Location points are available in the side rails of the
vehicle.
2. If the attachment is positioned extremely low or if the
attachment is extremely overlapping, it may be prohibited to
use the coupling mounted ex works.
3. The permitted trailing weight (depending on the engine) has to
be determined before the retrofitting is carried out.

Details which are not specified are to be suitably selected.
Check
It is required to check dimensions and angles with suitable
length measuring devices and protractor gauges.
