Example:
The motorhome must be weighed fully loaded to obtain accurate scale
readings and to determine the proper tire pressure.
• Take the rear axle gross axle weight rating (GAWR)
and divide it by two. Record the figure next to scale B
GAWR ÷ 2. Example: If rear axle GAWR is 13,000
lbs. GAWR ÷ 2 would be 6,500 lbs.
• Weigh the driver’s side rear corner (scale B) and
record the scale reading next to gross axle weight
(GAW) for scale B. Example: Scale B reading is 5100
lbs.
• Repeat procedure for the rest of the scale readings.
• Add the GAWR from scales B and D and enter the
sum next to the final GAWR. Example 13,000.
• Add the GAW from scales B and D and enter this sum
next to the final GCAW. Example: 10,000.
• Compare scale readings GCAW against GAWR read-
ings. All figures on line 2 are not to exceed figures on
line 1.
• Use tire chart with scale reading to determine correct
tire pressure.
NOTE: Scale readings and gross axle weight ratings are ficti-
tious. Actual scale readings and gross axle weight ratings will
vary with model and options.
