Loading
and Weight Distribution
|
Your ability to handle and control
your tow vehicle and trailer is greatly improved when the
cargo is properly loaded and distributed. Refer to your tow
vehicle and trailer owner’s manual to find out how to
- Balance weight from side to side
- Distribute cargo weight evenly along the
length of the trailer
- Secure and brace all items to prevent them
from moving during travel
- Adjust the height of the tow vehicle/trailer
interface
- Apply load leveling (weight distributing
hitch bars)
Most trailers and tow vehicles should be level
(parallel to the ground) during travel. Check the instructions
from your trailer manufacturer to make sure this is correct
for your combination of vehicles.
