(O1= <750KG laden)

(O2 =<3500Kg laden)

Part I of evaluation form is to be completed by the applicant (with the exception of areas verified by an NSAI ATC)

An NSAI Approved Test Centre (ATC) will verify and complete relevant sections of Part I where it states “verified by ATC” and inspection requirements as in Part III. Part III shall be signed and stamped by an ATC

The applicant shall submit with evaluation and inspection form:

-Braking calculations (compatibility results between control device and brake), drawings and diagrams, braking test reports

-A copy of installation instructions for the coupling device and a signed declaration that the installation instructions were followed

-Dimensional drawings and photographs describing the trailer build

-Copy of the Certificate of Conformity (COC) or Whole Vehicle Type Approval Certificate for the original trailer (if applicable).

-All EC/UN-ECE type approvals granted for the base vehicle (see page II). (if available)

3. Rear Under run / Result (Pass/Fail)
·  When the construction of the rear of the vehicle forms the rear under run protection device, then the ground clearance of the rear part of the vehicle must not exceed 550mm over a width which is not shorter than that of the rear axle by more than 100mm on either side (excluding any tyre bulging close to the ground).
4. Rear Registration plate space / Result (Pass/Fail)
·  The space for mounting the rear registration plate shall comprise an even or virtually even rectangular surface with the following dimensions:
Width 520 or 120mm
Height 120 or 240mm
·  The space must allow the mounting of a plate in a position as close to vertical as is possible by the vehicle structure available.
o  30º from the vertical if plate is facing upwards.
o  15º from the vertical if plate is facing downwards.
·  The plate shall be visible in the whole space.
46. Tyres (Note - see appendix 2 below) / Result (Pass/Fail)
·  is fitted with e or E marked tyres (record approval number)
·  are marked with the appropriate speed and load ratings for their particular axle locations and the intended use of the vehicle.
(see appendix 2 below for indices)
·  Each tyre fitted must have the same structure (eg bias-belted, crossply or radial), nominal size and aspect ratio as any other tyre on the same axle
