2. With the recreation vehicle still attached to the tow vehicle, each wheel position
should then be weighed separately to be sure each tire is not overloaded.
To determine the wheel position weight:
• Pull the recreation vehicle onto the scale so that only one tire is on the scale.
Record the weight. Your trailer must remain as level as possible on the scale
(even though an axle or side is not physically on the scale). Obviously, to obtain
the side-to-side weights, there must be enough space on either side of the scale to
accommodate the recreation vehicle being partially off the scale.
• To calculate the opposite side of the vehicle wheel position weight, subtract the
first side’s weight from the weight determined in step #1.
If there is a difference in the weights on one side of the vehicle as compared to weights
on the other side, components (tires, wheels, brakes, springs, etc.) on the heavier side
could be overloaded, even though the total axle load is within the GVWR. It is important
to redistribute the load to avoid component failure, as well as to improve the handling
characteristics of the vehicle.
TIRES
All Jayco towable travel trailers are equipped with name brand tires, designed and built
for recreation vehicles. Tires are radial in design, having two steel cords and two
polyester cords, offering excellent strength and mileage in various types of weather.
The air pressure should be maintained at its recommended pressure. Always check the
tires when they are cold, such as before traveling at the beginning of the day. It is normal
for air pressure to increase when traveling as tires will heat up.
DO NOT
release air
pressure as tires become hot. If you do, the tires will then be under-inflated when they
cool down.
CAUTION:
It is recommended that the tire pressure be checked at the beginning
of each journey to obtain the maximum life of the tires.
Inflation
Always follow inflation guidelines printed on sidewall of tire.
NOTE:
Tires are warranted by the manufacturer of their respective brand, and are to
be serviced and warranted by a service center. They are not to be returned to
the dealer or manufacturer of your RV trailer.
For tire removal and raising travel trailer, see Chapter 7, Maintenance.
