Rear Bumper
The rear bumper of your unit is not designed to carry cargo. Items that extend beyond the
bumper OR weigh over 100# (45kg) will place undo strain on the bumper. The 100#
capacity of your bumper includes the weight of the spare tire that may have been attached at
the factory. Some items may fall within the given weight range, however, may still cause
damage. Over time, weight added to your bumper will cause damage from the motion
created while traveling.
In addition, extra weight behind the axle may reduce the hitch weight. This could lead to
adverse handling conditions of the towed vehicle from wind gusts and/or passing traffic.
Caution: Do not add items to the trailer’s rear bumper. Add-on items will
eventually damage your bumper. Damage from add-on equipment or improper
loading voids the Limited Warranty of your trailer.
HOLDING TANK(S) AND TRAILER WEIGHT
I
WARNING: We recommend that you DO NOT travel with waste in your
holding tanks. With one or more full or nearly full holding tank(s), the
towing characteristics of your trailer could change and may result in
property damage or personal injury.
The weight of holding tank contents are not calculated into the cargo carrying capacity of
the trailer. The extra weight will diminish the cargo capacity available to you. Traveling
with full holding tank(s) could possibly causing you to exceed the gross axle weight
rating(s), individual tire ratings and/or the gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of the unit.
Potential damage to suspension components, such as springs, tires and axles, could result.
If your trailer’s holding tank(s) are located behind the axles, the weight of the full tank(s)
will reduce the hitch weight. Trailer sway and other handling difficulties can be the result
of the hitch weight being too light.
If you are dry camping and cannot immediately empty the tank(s), use caution when
towing. Maintain lower speeds for better control of the trailer until you reach the nearest
dumping station.
