er device) merely provides information on the test

values of the device.

Support load with mounted accessories

When using the accessories (e.g. bicycle carrier), the

maximum length and the permissible total weight in-

cluding load must be considered.

The maximum length of the mounted accessories

(from the ball of the towing device) may not exceed

70 cm.

The permissible total weight of the mounted acces-

sories including its load corresponds to the maxi-

mum vertical load for trailer operation; the value can

be found in the vehicle registration documentation.

If the maximum load in trailer operation is more than

75 kg, then the permissible total weight of the

mounted accessories including their load must not

exceed 75 kg.

This value applies if the centre of gravity is at a dis-

tance of no more than 30 cm from the towing device

If the distance of the centre gravity of the load to

the ball head of the towing device is greater than
