Do not exceed the maximum tongue weight.
You can measure tongue weight with a bath-
room scale. Put the tongue of the loaded trailer
on the scale with the tongue at hitch height. Ad-
just the load in the trailer, if necessary, to re-
duce the weight on hitch.
If you are carrying cargo and towing a trailer, in-
clude the tongue weight in the maximum vehi-
cle load limit.
Load cargo on the carrier as close to the center
of the vehicle as possible. Put cargo at the front
of the rear carrier. Center the load from side to
side.
Tie down cargo securely to the carriers. Make
sure cargo in the trailer cannot move around. A
shifting load can cause an accident.
Make sure the load does not interfere with con-
trols or your ability to see where you are going.
