Section 3: Pre-Travel Information
1.
Weigh the RV including the tongue weight, while detached from the tow vehicle. This
actual overall weight must be less than or equal to the GVWR for safe operation. If the
overall weight is greater than the GVWR, some contents must be removed until the
actual overall weight is less than or equal to GVWR.
2.
Hitch the RV to your tow vehicle. Weigh the RV and the tow vehicle to determine the
GCW. Make sure that this rating is less than or equal to the GCWR as specified by the
manufacturer of your tow vehicle. If this overall weight is greater than the GCWR,
some contents must be removed to bring the combination into compliance with the
listed ratings.
3.
Weigh the RV while attached to but excluding the tow vehicle. This will result in the
actual weight that is exerted on all of the RV tires. This weight may be subtracted from
the overall RV GVWR to determine the actual “tongue” weight.
4.
With the RV still attached to the tow vehicle, weigh each wheel position separately to
ensure each tire is not overloaded.
To determine the wheel position weight:
5.
Pull the RV onto the scale so only one tire is on the scale. Record the weight. Your RV
must remain as level as possible on the scale (even though an axle or side is not physi-
cally on the scale).
6.
To calculate the opposite side of the RV wheel position weight, subtract the first side’s
weight from the weight determined in step #3.
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 GAWR.
Once actual weights are obtained, compare them to the
Weight Information Label
weight
ratings to ensure you are below the posted minimum ratings.
