Police appeal for information to locate stolen generator, Windsor

Sgt Jodie Murray on Jun 3, 2025 @ 3:41pm
Police are seeking public assistance to locate a trailer and generator stolen from a business on Somerset Street in Windsor between 3pm on Sunday, June 1, and 6am on Monday, June 2.

It is further alleged that a second trailer has attempted to be stolen at the same location.

The trailer has the Queensland registration plate FT2679. The generator pictured below is yellow and black.

If you have any relevant information that may assist police in locating the stolen trailer, please contact Policelink on 131 444 and quote reference number QP2500951322.

Police are encouraging trailer owners to check their vehicle security and follow the tips below for crime prevention:

Use off-street parking, if it is available to you.

If possible, park behind locked gates or in a locked garage.

If you must leave your trailer parked on the road or in a public area, use a high-quality securing mechanism (wheel locks and/or coupling locks), preferably secured to a heavy/thick chain, chained to something permanent/unmovable.

Any measure that makes your trailer look hard to move will go a long way to deterring would-be thieves.

DID YOU KNOW: Your pair of brake shoes are NOT identical.

If your shoes are on the wrong way, you risk your drum getting red hot and your bearings losing grease.

When you take a closer look at your brake shoes, you will notice:

A shorter lining shoe: this shoe faces the caravan's front.

A longer lining shoe: this shoe faces the rear of the caravan and engages with the handbrake.

Here's an easy guide to knowing what minimum D-value is required for your Gross Vehicle Mass (GVM).

WHY IT'S IMPORTANT: Gross Vehicle Mass refers to the maximum legal weight your rig can carry when fully loaded.

✔ Your full load includes your passengers, cargo, accessories and the downward weight of your tow bar.

The consequences of jackknifing are clear here:

• The pintlehook has broken off from it's base
• The yellow horn does not line up with the lower, black hook
• There are scuff marks on the pintlehook

When the trailer begins to move at sharp reversing angles, drivers, feeling resistance, usually attempt to reverse further.

This seemingly harmless action often worsens the problem, leading to extensive damage like what's pictured.

Often, these drivers remain unaware of the damage they’ve caused, such as fractures in the coupling or damage to the vehicle’s rear.
