desired 10%

Effects of Weight Distribution

The distribution of weight in a caravan can influence the handling and performance of the van. Overloading the front
or rear may cause adverse handling and sway. Additionally, overloading the front or back can induce a pendulum
effect that can cause dangerous sway and cause an accident.

Tyre Pressures

Tyre pressures have a large effect on the handling of your caravan. Tyres that are under the recommended pressure
for the caravans’ actual weight can cause a dangerous sway. It is important to follow the correct pressure guide. The
guide below indicates pressure for the ATM which includes ball weight of 10%. Pressures are cold inflation applicable
to the standard Goodride 265/75R16 tyres fitted.
