The recommended procedure to weigh a motorhome accurately is on individual corner scales. Since these are not
always available, above is a diagram of how to weigh a motorhome on a typical truck scale.
Note: Since only one corner can be weighed at a time, the remaining three corners need to be as close to the scale
as possible without being on the scale and the unit needs to be as level as possible. Remember, wind and rain can
cause inaccuracies of weights.
IMPORTANT
Your RV has been aligned at the factory as part of the production process. To provide optimum tire longevity and offer
the best handling characteristics, Newmar recommends you have your unit re-aligned
after
loading your belongings as
you would travel. Though highly recommended, this alignment is not mandatory, and as such is not warrantable by
Newmar or the chassis manufacturer.
Campsite Parking
If the campground does not have drive-through sites, it is recommended to stop near the site and inspect it for
slopes or uneven areas. Carefully back into the campsite. Watch for low-hanging limbs, posts, large rocks, or
other obstacles. Back the unit in so the site is on the driver’
s left, if possible. This will enable the driver to watch
the rear of the unit. Back up slowly using the side mirrors as a guide or with the assistance of another person
outside guiding the parking procedure.
Place the vehicle in park and turn off the ignition. If parked on a steep incline, pre-level the coach by driving the
appropriate wheels onto blocks. Finish the leveling process by using the leveling jack system to level and stabilize
the unit. Connect the 120 volt shore power to the unit. Open the propane gas valves at the propane tanks. Connect
the fresh water supply and sanitize the water systems, if necessary. Connect the waste drain hose to the sewer
hook-up. Start the refrigerator, water heater, and furnace, if needed. Light the oven pilot light, if applicable.
Remember that the refrigerator will not operate efficiently if the unit is not level.
CAUTION
Do not lift the wheels of the unit off the ground at any time during this process. The unit can roll forward or backward
when the weight of the unit is on the jacks.
