LOADING CARGO
I
WARNING: For traveling safety, it is important to make sure that tie down straps are
secured on all appliances such as the television, coffee maker, etc. Vibration caused
during travel will move the appliances creating the potential for them to fall out of
their cabinets possibly causing injury.
The loading of travel and camping equipment along with food and liquids requires careful
consideration. Lightweight and bulky items such as paper products, bedding, and clothes should be
stored in overhead cabinets. Heavy items such as cooking equipment should be placed in lower
cabinets. Canned food should be in a pantry, if so equipped, or in lower cabinets. Heavy items
should be secured to avoid shifting during travel. Keep heavy items in front of the rear axle as too
much weight behind the axle can affect steering conditions.
Distributing weight throughout the motorhome will enable the unit to handle and perform well
during travel.
When you are finished loading the motorhome, weigh the vehicle. See the next section for weighing
instructions.
I
WARNING: The rear bumper on the frame of the motorhome is NOT designed to
carry over 100 lb. of weight. Installation of items exceeding 100 lb. may cause metal
fatigue and weld stress. If such failures occur, it could damage your property and
endanger vehicles following your motorhome during travel, possibly causing an
accident.
I
WARNING: We recommend that you DO NOT travel with full (gray or black)
holding tanks. Full holding tanks are not calculated into the cargo capacity of your
motorhome. The weight from full holding tanks will greatly diminish the cargo
capacity and possibly cause you to exceed the gross vehicle weight rating. This can
affect suspension components, reduce fuel economy, and create adverse handling
characteristics. If you are dry camping and cannot immediately empty your tanks,
reduce your speed until you reach a dumping station.
