Determinin gt he correct load limit
Step-by-ste pi nstructionsThe following steps have been developed as
required of all manufacturers under Title 49,
Cod eofU .S. Federa lR egulations, Part 575 pur-
suant to the "National Traffi ca nd Motor Vehicle
Safety Act of 1966". X
Step 1: Locate the statement "The combined
weight of occupants and cargo should never
exceed XXX kg or XXX lbs." on you rv ehicle’s
Tire and Loading Informatio np lacard.X
Step 2: Determine the combined weight of
the drive ra nd passengers that wil lber iding in
you rv ehicle. X
Step 3: Subtract the combined weight of the
drive ra nd passengers from XXX kilograms or
XXX lbs. X
Step 4: The resulting figure equals the avail-
abl ea mount of cargo and luggage loa dc apa-
city. For example, if the "XXX "a mount equals
1400 lbs and there wil lbef ive 150-lb pas-
sengers in you rv ehicle, the amount of avail-
abl ec argo and luggage loa dc apacity is
650 lbs (1400 -7 50 (5 x1 50) = 6 50 lbs).X
Step 5: Determine the combined weight of
luggage and cargo being loaded on the vehi-
cle. That weight may not safel ye xceed the
available cargo and luggage loa dc apacity cal-
culated in step 4.
Example :s teps 1to3The following table show se xamples on how to
calculate total and cargo loa dc apacities with
varying seating configurations and number and
size of occupants. The following examples use a
loa dl imi tof1 500 lbs (680 kg). This is for illus-
tration purposes only. Make sure you are
