Fun and flexible transporter.
“80% of our transport work is done with the new one. We use it for the construction and maintenance of playgrounds as well as for winter service,” explains Benjamin Nehls, commercial manager of the building yard. According to him, there are around 60 children’s playgrounds in the city with its five districts and 15 surrounding villages. “There’s always something to maintain.”
The vehicle is equipped with typical municipal orange (RAL 2011) and LED signal lighting with the versatile municipal mounting plate. In winter, a plough blade from Aebi Schmidt is mounted. For the rear, the Wertheimers equipped their Unimog with a Bucher Yeti W27 wet salt spreader, which is distinguished by its low tank design.
We particularly appreciate the Unimog’s off-road capability, compact design, versatile applications and powerful engine.
Ralph Hörner, Workshop Manager, Bauhof Wertheim
The route network in and around Wertheim is divided between the Unimog U 327 as well as a Unimog U 400 and a Unimog U 430. For the rest of the year, the Unimog is a reliable towing vehicle for a Möslein trailer carrying a mini-excavator piggyback. And don't forget the practical Jotha container exchange system: “We use different dump bodies, for example for transporting construction materials, small equipment and machinery. We transport bulky goods in a large container, for example for urban moves,” says workshop manager Ralph Hörner.
All-terrain, compact, versatile.
The containers are picked up effortlessly by the Unimog’s set-down skip loader body. “We particularly appreciate the Unimog’s off-road capability, compact design, versatile applications and powerful engine,” underlines Hörner. According to him, the compact and above all narrow design of the vehicle is ideal for use in tight streets and narrow roads, such as in residential areas.

And because the best usually comes last, we now come to the highlight of the Unimog U 327: As one of the first Unimog to be delivered, it was equipped with the UNI-TOUCH® system.
UNI-TOUCH® video tutorials: Instructions for the Mercedes-Benz Unimog.
The central control unit, for example, makes it very easy to control the attachments with clever switching elements such as linear rocker switches, adjustment dials and memory buttons. It can be moved sideways as well as forwards and backwards to adapt to a wide range of needs, such as when switching the driver’s side in conjunction with the VarioPilot® transferable steering system. This means that there is only one conclusion for the long-standing building yard employees: everything is even more beautiful in Wertheim!
