handling. Ensure heavy items are secured so
they do not shift during travel; when loading
heavy objects keep them as low as possible
(preferably on the floor).
Decide on the various items of food, clothing,
equipment and other supplies you will need for
the length and destination of your trip. Store
and secure all loose items inside the RV before
traveling. Overlooked items such as canned
goods, or small appliances on the countertop,
cooking pans on the range or free-standing
furniture items can become dangerous
projectiles during a sudden stop.
Distribute cargo side-to-side so the weight on
each tire does not exceed one-half of the
GAWR for either axle. For traveling safety, it is
important to make sure any tie down straps (if
so equipped) on appliances or furniture are
secured.

Now that your RV is loaded you should have it
weighed. The actual weight of the RV,
passengers, all options, liquids, the hitch
weight of your towed vehicle and your
personal cargo is important for you to know so
you do not exceed the GVWR. There are two
important factors when loading your RV, total
weight and balance. It is imperative that you
verify compliance within all applicable weight
ratings. Overloading your RV will void the
Towable Limited Warranty and the warranties
of many component part manufacturers.
Have your RV weighed periodically at a
public scale to determine the proper load
distribution.
Keep in mind that individual
scales will operate differently. The
surroundings of the scale need to be adequate
to accommodate weighing each side of your
RV.
To weigh your tow vehicle and RV
Read through all the weighing instructions
before you begin. If you have further
questions, consult with your RV dealer or the
scale operator. Your RV must be weighed fully
loaded (that is with food, clothing, fuel, water,
propane, supplies, etc).
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

PRE-TRAVEL INFORMATION
WARNING
Store items in areas designated for
storage. Do not store anything in the areas
reserved for the converter, electrical
panels, furnace or water heater, etc.
WARNING
DO NOT EXCEED YOUR GVWR!
This
means you should weigh your RV as
loaded for your normal travel to determine
the actual weight. If you exceed the GVWR,
you
MUST
remove items from the RV, or
drain liquids, then re-weigh the vehicle to
ensure you have achieved a safe weight.
Never travel with full grey/black holding
tanks. This not only wastes gas but,
depending upon the location of the grey or
black holding tanks, can affect handling
characteristics.
WARNING
Total weight of your tow vehicle and RV
must not exceed the GCWR.
Do not
assume that you can tow a RV that
happens to be within the capacity of the tow
vehicle hitch. By doing so, you may exceed
the total GCWR of your tow vehicle and RV
towing combination.
WARNING
It is important to redistribute the load to
avoid component failure as well as to
improve the handling characteristics of the
vehicle.
