  • Saddle train 3 axles combined with 3 axles trailer overlength?

    Good day, maybe someone here has idea of special permission regarding overlength. The consideration would be to buy a 3 axle tractor and a standard 3 axle trailer. Have already seen some with this combination, but according to several figures these vehicles are all 20-30 cm too long. Are there special permits for, if yes how expensive would such a thing be and applies this then permanent? I have now googled something and read what from 70s and 21s permission, but the ri I haven’t found a good one. Thank you for your help.

  • MB Atego 816 – C1 Beginner’s question

    Moin! I have a question. I made my C1 driver’s license 9 years ago because I need it for the rescue service. Ambulances usually weigh more than 3.5to Now I rented a MB Atego 816 for a move in March and have a few ‘doofes’ questions because my last hours on a truck have been quite a while. Since it is a manual gearbox: How many gears does the truck have? I can still remember my IVECO truck from the driving school, which, I think, 8 gears had, but because of the lack of payload we were always in the 3rd gear. 1. and 2. were then for starting up on the mountain and for a lot of load. Furthermore, it was the case that from the 5th or 6th gear one had to push the shift lever strongly over a resistance to the right to get into the upper gears. Is the IVECO specific or is it still like that? Does the MB Atego 816 have a retarder brake and if so, is the handling difficult? The IVECO definitely had none, since This is new ground for me. I have already written to a driving school in the village for 1-2 refresher lessons, but I don’t know if they do that yet. I also don’t know if they have a MB Atego. Thank you for your help. LG, atcjoe

  • MAN TGS gear problems…

    Hey together! With my new builder tipper TGS 33,480 I occasionally have the problem that the switching support fails, i.e. I stand in the middle of the intersection and don’t come away anymore, because without raw force no more gear goes in. Also the split group doesn’t like then. Vehicle WITHOUT Comfort Shift! What can this be? Vehicle has now 12000 down and is three months old, with the friendly one is guessless and has already exchanged various controls, so far without success. tt only sporadically on, and almost always with the yellow message KUPPLUNG! on the display, whereby the then but clean separates, because I can switch on side drive cleanly.

  • Driver card requirement?

    Hello, this forum has already searched a little bit, but does not come any further. I have my truck driver’s license C in my pocket since today and am working again from Tuesday. Work in the film industry and have to move mostly 7.5 t. So since we do not need the professional driver’s basic qualification, I wonder if we also need a driver’s card? Who knows there are exceptions? And if it is not possible to find a link, where I land on a regulation with official German. I have already found… 😉 Grateful for every hint. Greetings

  • Read out driver card

    Hello together, I got a new Scania on Wednesday. Of course with Digi-Tacho. I used to scan my speedometer discs and archive them on my computer. I would also like to do this with the data on my driver card. A few questions: Can I read the driver card with a standard card reader (via USB)? Do I need special software to display the data? In what format are the files on the driver card?

  • Questions on continuing training for professional drivers (CE available)

    Evening ended up in this MT area by chance, and otherwise rather in other departments. I would have a few questions: I made my truck driver’s license with the Greens in 2005 (CE). I was already thinking if I should make a further training as a professional driver. I have already looked at the Internet at IHK Tüv driving schools etc., but this is all a bit confusing. Is an accelerated basic qualification enough? Includes 140h by a e recognized training place + Thero. Prat. Exam. At the Tüv Rheinland is offered: Accelerated basic qualification with IHK exam duration 25days Theo. 172h Prak. 14h cost 2950€ plus VAT. I have already found many different types of training 3 years then 2years or 1 year or 25days. Where are the differences. Is one learning the same everywhere? I am mainly concerned about the end of WHEN professional driver, and not that it was only a course at the end where there is only one piece of paper where it says has attended the course. Or does someone have any other ideas, or has tips on what to watch out for?

  • Need help !!! Instructor doesn’t want me to go to driving school ?

    Moin people I am the ” Bruno” and I make an apprenticeship as a professional driver. My certificate of the 1 year of training was quite good everywhere a 2. I come now into the 2 year of training and I would like to make my driver’s license. But I think my instructor has something against it. I was in his office today and asked him if I can make the driver’s license. He then said the following: Do you know at all what responsibility it is to drive a 40 tonner? Can they already drive trucks fa my instructor didn’t pay any attention to me and continued to work on the pc….. I then went out and was speechless! Yesterday I was e.g. at the boss or managing director. To this end I got an apprentice who is in the same year as I call him ” Robert ” he meant to me that I should first ask the boss about driving license. Because that worked with him too !!! He is now allowed to take the driver’s license and I n icht…. So as I said I was at the boss and asked about the driver’s license he said….who is her supervisor ? I then answered my instructor ^^ He then only like this: then they clarify it with him I honestly don’t know what to do now….. – Should I rather look for another company ? – is the company obliged to pay me the driver’s license ? Or can the company just let me work like this in the workshop for 2 years and throw out afterwards ? I do The work is monotonous all day long and it doesn’t require much mental effort. Every day only the same thing doesn’t make fun. Other students from my vocational school class ride with drivers and get insights And I’m just playing in the Werstatt and that every day 9 hours So I really don’t know how to go on….Help… .. !!!

  • Search replacement – Iveco or Sprinter? BJ 04/05/06

    Hello Are you looking for a replacement for our old/mostly reliable MB 100 D (high and long) because it no longer comes into big cities and this is not business-promoting. So, 75 percent only long distances are driven and 100 percent fully loaded, always! Have looked at Sprinter Maxi and Daily Maxi. The budget is limited. I already specified that it will not be the new models, but for that the facelift, i.e. the Sprinter 2003 up and the Daily so in 2005 There is also a car dealership where there are EU vehicles at good priceshttp://www.wensauer.com/ There are the Iveco very cheap. I have NO idea of the Iveco engines. 115 hp 136 hp etc… which is the more reliable one? At MB I have a bit of a clue, but there are also mostly the injectors. The Iveco motors also have all these injectors as far as I could read out or? Which would you decide for and WHY? I am not talking about the optics, whether the one faster ros I am concerned about the reliability of the engines and also of the gearbox and possibly of the chassis. And which engine? I hope for further answers Greetings Aidk
