2.4 Weight Distribution
Distribute weight evenly in vehicle, including front and
rear, left and right of the vehicle. Ensure that tire load
capacity GVW is within permissible loads listed below.
A front axle load of at least 25 % of the permissible gross
vehicle weight must be maintained in all load states to
ensure sufficient steerability of the vehicle. When a
loading tail-gate is attached to the vehicle or when the
vehicle is prepared to tow a single axle trailer (central axle
trailer)
, at least 30 % of the gross vehicle weight must be
borne by the front axle.
Do not exceed permissible axle loads and gross
vehicle weights. The permissible load and weights
are listed on vehicle certification label, see section
2.4 of this manual. Exceeding the permissible axle
loads and/or gross vehicle weights significantly
impairs the vehicle’s driving stability and handling
characteristics and may cause serious injury or
death.
