TRAILER LOADING PRACTICES
The consequences of ignoring proper trailer loading practices can be
very serious. Failure to adhere to the information in this section could
lead to unsafe handling, diminished braking capacity, or other unstable
trailer characteristics which could result in an accident causing property
damage, bodily injury or death.
It is the operators responsibility to take whatever steps necessary to load the
trailer properly, even when it is not easy to calculate the total load or determine
the load center of gravity.
A decal on the trailer similar to the one shown below indicates the correct place-
ment of the load. Load the trailer so that 60% of the total load weight is forward of the
arrow, and 40% is rearward of the arrow. This will ensure that the proper load balance
and tongue weight are achieved.
