2.
Move the unit so that the front wheels are off the scales as shown in Fig. 2. Record the weight. This is
the total weight of the unit except for the front axle. This weight should not exceed the total rating of the
axles remaining on the scales. The front axle weight is determined by subtracting this weight from the
GVW that was obtained in Step One (1). This amount should not exceed the listed front axle weight
rating. The recommended procedure to weigh a motorhome accurately is on individual corner scales.
Since these are not always available, below 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.
GENERAL TIRE INFORMATION
Tire Nomenclature
It is important to locate and read all the information located on the sidewall of your tires to insure proper
use and long, safe life. The two primary areas of concern are the tire size information, and the operation /
inflation information.
Tire Inflation Information
The sidewall of the tire also contains an information block that contains more detailed construction
information (number of plys, etc.), and inflation and carrying capacity information. It is critical that you
become familiar with this information, and operate the vehicle within the capacity parameters outlined in
the detailed tire inflation information. Failure to follow and monitor tire pressure guide lines closely can
result in premature tire failure.
Tire Size
The tire size is given in the following markings:
This tire size is 315 / 80 R 22.5. From this size, we can determine the physical dimensions of the tire, as
well as its basic construction. The tire size breaks
down like this:
The first number, “315”, is the section width of the tire
in millimeters. Section width is the measurement of the
tire from outside sidewall to outside sidewall.
