Ball Weight
When loading your camper, the generally accepted tow ball weight once loaded is around 10% of the total
weight of the camper. Use a ball weight scale to identify the ball weight and load the camper in a manner that
achieves the desired weight. Ideally, once loaded the first time, take the camper to a weigh bridge, and measure
the total weight loaded including the weight on the jockey wheel. When the total weight is known, adjust the
load locations to meet the desired balance considering 10% is the generally accepted benchmark.
Effects of Weight Distribution
The distribution of weight in a camper can influence the handling and performance. Overloading the front or rear
may cause adverse handling and sway. Additionally, overloading the front or back can induce a pendulum effect
that can cause dangerous sway and cause an accident.
Tyre Pressures
Tyre pressures have a large effect on the handling of your camper. Tyres that are under the recommended
pressure for the campers’ actual weight can cause a dangerous sway. It is important to follow the correct
pressure guide. The guide below indicates pressure for the ATM which includes ball weight of 10%. Pressures are
cold inflation applicable to the standard Goodride 265/75R16 tyres fitted.
