Federal law requires that the specifications for the tire’s maximum load rating
be molded into the sidewall of the tire. The amount of air pressure to use is
dependent on the weight of the motorhome when it is fully loaded. The chart
within this section indicates the weights that can be properly supported by varying
air pressures. Decreasing air pressure decreases load carrying capacity.
Always comply with the tire manufacturer's recommended pressure inflation
guideline. The actual weight of the motorhome can vary significantly depending
on how it is loaded. For optimum tire wear, ride and handling always comply with
the manufacturer guideline. A tire inflation chart listing proper inflation pressure
for different loads is contained in this section of the manual.
The tires of the motorhome are inflated to pressure(s) appropriate for the actual
weight on each axle in the unloaded, shipped condition. When the motorhome is
loaded, check and adjust the inflation pressure on each tire as needed.
Always inflate tires to the pressure indicated in the tire chart for the load
carried by the tire.
DO NOT OVERINFLATE OR UNDERINFLATE THE
TIRES
.
The Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) of the axles listed on the federal
certification label attached to the motorhome is the maximum allowable loaded
weight on an axle.
When the actual loaded weight of the motorhome and the weight on each axle
is unknown, follow the recommended tire inflation pressure(s) listed on the federal
certification label. When loading a motorhome never exceed the motorhome's
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) or the GAWR for each axle.
Contact the tire manufacturer for further information concerning proper tire
pressure inflation and other tire issues.
