Preferably secure the load as a combination of
form-fitting and force-fitting:
- Force-fitted by: direct tie-down of the load.
- Form-fitted by: supporting the various components of
the load against each other, against the drop sides and
against the cargo-bed extensions, without spaces in-be-
tween.
6.2.1 Projecting goods
Goods that project over the cargo bed or drop
sides must be marked in accordance with Section
22 of the StVO (German Road Traffic Act).
For the "Steely", the goods generally must not
project beyond the back of the trailer!

Marking goods
1. Sign / flag (30 cm x 30 cm) or
cylindrical body (ø 35 cm x 30 cm), bright red
►
►
Check that your load does not exceed the maximum
permissible values according to Section 22, "Goods", of
the StVO.
►
►
Mark any projecting goods.
- Make use of the prescribed means for doing so.
►
►
Do not load the goods too far forward.
- The required swerving range for driving around
bends must remain open!
Restricted swerving range - risk of collision!
Supporting the load on the front drop side and allowing it to
project forwards reduces the swerving range when driving
around bends - accident risk!
►
►
Remove the front and rear drop side.
►
►
Before driving off, check that the restricted
swerving range will allow you towing vehicle to
drive around bends.
►
►
Adjust the distribution of the load (towards the
middle of the drawbar) if necessary.
