This section of the User Manual contains tire safety information as required by 49 CFR 575.6.
Steps for Determining Correct Load Limit - Trailer
Trailers 10,000 Pounds GVWR or Less
1.
Locate the statement “The weight of cargo should never exceed XXX kg or XXX lbs” on your Vehicles
placard. See figure 1-1
2.
This figure equals the available amount of cargo and luggage load capacity.
Tire and Loading Information Placard - Figure 1-1
3.
Determine the combined weight of luggage and cargo being loaded on the vehicle. That weight may
not safely exceed the available cargo and luggage load capacity.
The trailer’s placard refers to the Tire Information Placard attached adjacent to or near the trailer’s VIN (Certification)
label at the left front of the trailer.
Note: The following calculations in Sections 2.1.2 and 2.2 are not required by the government. For the purpose of
completeness, NATM has included these statements.
Steps for Determining Load Limit - TOW VEHICLE
1.
Locate the statement, “The combined weight of occupants and cargo should never exceed XXX lbs.,” on
your vehicle’s placard.
2.
Determine the combined weight of the driver and passengers who will be riding in your vehicle.
3.
Subtract the combined weight of the driver and passengers from XXX kilograms or XXX pounds.
4.
The resulting figure equals the available amount of cargo and luggage capacity. For example, if the “XXX”
amount equals 1400 lbs and there will be five 150 lb. passengers in your vehicle, the amount of
available cargo and luggage capacity is 650 lbs. (1400-750 (5 x 150) = 650 lbs.).
5.
Determine the combined weight of luggage and cargo being loaded on the vehicle. That weight may not
safely exceed the available cargo and luggage capacity calculated in Step # 4.
6.
If your vehicle will be towing a trailer, load from your trailer will be transferred to your vehicle. Consult
the tow vehicle’s manual to determine how this weight transfer reduces the available cargo and luggage
capacity of your vehicle.
