Question:
Can I drive a commercial truck with link trailer if only back trailer has a load and front piece (trailer) is empty?
Answer:
You may as long as the total load on the vehicle does not exceed 5 x the mass of the driving axle/s of the vehicle. Reg 239(3) requires that the drive axle must weigh 1/5 of the total load. If the load on the rear trailer is the only mass on the vehicle there is a very good chance that you are going to be overloaded due to a drive axle under load.
Hope you understand the explanation.
