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.
