3.3.3 Meaning of weights for the caravan
EU Directive 1230/2012 applies at a European level for vehicles
when calculating the masses (weights) and resultant additional loads
for caravans. The terms and basic calculation elements used in this
description are explained in the following:
1.
Gross vehicle weight rating (g.v.w.r.)
The indication of the gross vehicle weight rating is taken directly
from the HOBBY factory. This mass takes into account the specific
operating conditions that are based on the model of the caravan and
its specifications, including such factors as material strength, load-
carrying capacity of the axles and tyres, etc. For safety reasons, this
mass must never be exceeded!
2. Mass in running order
The mass when ready to drive is equal to the weight of the standard
caravan including all of the standard equipment installed by the facto
-
ry plus all of the equipment and liquids that are required for the safe
and correct use of the vehicle. This includes the following masses:
