Section 3: Pre-Travel Information
Cargo Carrying Accessory Receiver (if so equipped)
Receiver is for cargo carrying accessories ONLY. DO NOT tow any trail-
er or other vehicle. Load Limit for this receiver is 300 lbs Maximum. Use
for towing or exceeding load limit will void the warranty. Failure to follow
the instructions can cause the carrier to collapse or items to fall which could
cause an accident resulting in death or serious injury.
Loading Your Recreation Vehicle
Store and secure all loose items inside the RV before traveling. Overlooked items can be-
come 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. Make sure any tie down straps (if so equipped) on appliances or
furniture are secure. Load heavy objects on the floor, or as low as possible.
 Your recreation vehicle’s load capacity is designated by weight, not by
volume, so you cannot necessarily use all available space when loading
the vehicle. Do not exceed your GVWR and ensure you are loading the
vehicle as evenly as you can for the best possible handling. Ensure heavy
items are secured so they do not shift during travel.
 Store items in areas designated for storage. Do not store anything in
the areas reserved for the converter, electrical panels or the furnace
or water heater, etc.
 Never load the RV in excess of the GAWR for either axle. Overload-
ing your RV may result in adverse handling characteristics and dam-
age to the RV.
 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. Do not 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.
