Trailer  hitch  assemblies  have  differ-
ent  weight  capacities  established  by
the  hitch  manufacturer.  Even  though
the  vehicle  may  be  physically  capa-
ble  of  towing  a  higher  weight,  the
operator  must  determine  the  maxi-
mum  weight  rating  of  the  particular
hitch  assembly  and  never  exceed
the  maximum  weight  rating  speci-
fied  for  the  trailer

−

hitch. Exceeding

the  maximum  weight  rating  set  by
the  trailer  hitch  manufacturer  can
cause  an  accident  resulting  in  seri-
ous  personal  injuries.

!

The  gross  vehicle  weight  must  not
exceed  the  Gross  Vehicle  Weight
Rating  (GVWR)  indicated  on  the
Certification  Label.  The  gross  ve-
hicle  weight  is  the  sum  of  weights
of  the  unloaded  vehicle,  driver,  pas-
sengers,  luggage,  hitch  and  trailer
tongue  load.  It  also  includes  the
weight  of  any  special  equipment
installed  on  your  vehicle.

!

The  load  on  either  the  front  or  rear
axle  resulting  from  distribution  of
the  gross  vehicle  weight  on  both
axles  must  not  exceed  the  Gross
Axle  Weight  Rating  (GAWR)  listed
on  the  Certification  Label.
