Weights and Cargo Capacity
For safety reasons, it is very important to provide parktrailer owners with the most accurate weight
information available. The "Federal Certification" label (Fig. 8-2), located on the roadside front
corner of the parktrailer is shown here. Several weight terms an owner needs to understand when
operating a towable parktrailer are defined on the "Trailer Weight Information" label (Fig. 8-3),
which will be found on the backof a cabinet door in the kitchen base cupboard. An important term in
addition to the label information is the GAWR (Gross Axle Weight Rating). The GAWR is the
maximum weight rating that components of each axle are designed to support (i.e. tires, brakes,
springs, axle). Make sure that you review and understand the weight terms and information.
The weight provided in the Jayco literature for your parktrailer is based on standard equipment on
that particular model and is "dry" (i.e. no liquids of cargo). Remember that any options or personal
cargo added must be subtracted from the available cargo capacity. Never exceed the gross vehicle
weight rating of your parktrailer.

WARNING: Your park trailer's load capacity is designated by weight, not by volume,
so you cannot necessarily use all available space when loading the vehicle. Do not
exceed your gross vehicle weight capacity and ensure you are loading the trailer as
evenly as you can for the best possible handling. Ensure heavy items are secured so
they do not shift during travel.
