7.3.1 Determine admissible loading capacity
Observe the different specific weights of the various loaded
materials when charging the machine! Heavy loaded materials lead
to a reduced admissible loading capacity.
Max. admissible load (loading
capacity) = Gross vehicle weight rating - empty weight
The admissible axle load and the empty weight are indicated on the
type plate or in the chapter "Technical data", page 47
„.
Also observe:
•
the gross vehicle weight rating,
•
the admissible axle loads,
•
the admissible tongue load at the coupling point,
•
the load capacities of the mounted tyres,
•
the admissible towing capacity
of the tractor.
These details are registered on the type plate or in the vehicle
registration certificate and in the operating instructions of the tractor.
The tractor's front axle load must never fall below 20 % of the
tractor's empty weight.
