TRAILER LOADING PRACTICES
The consequences of ignoring proper trailer loading practices can be
very serious. Failure to adhere to the information in this section could
lead to unsafe handling, diminished braking capacity, or other unstable
trailer characteristics which could result in an accident causing property
damage, bodily injury or death.
It is the operators responsibility to take whatever steps necessary to load the
trailer properly, even when it is not easy to calculate the total load or determine the
load center of gravity.
A decal on the trailer similar to the one shown below indicates the correct placement of
the load. Load the trailer so that 60% of the total load weight is forward of the arrow, and
40% is rearward of the arrow. This will ensure that the proper load balance and tongue
weight are achieved.
WARNING
!
MAINTAIN 60% OF LOAD
FORWARD OF THIS POINT
(REFER TO OWNERS MANUAL)

ADVERSE WEATHER CONDITIONS!
Adverse weather conditions can cause wet and slippery trailer decks
and ramps. Depending on the type of equipment and typical weather con-
ditions it may be necessary to add traction aids to the trailer deck and
ramps.
