figurations
Calculate the available load capa-
city as shown in the following
examples.
Example 1A
Vehicle capacity weight of the
vehicle is 1,157 lbs (525 kg), which
is indicated on the vehicle placard
with the statement "The combined
weight of occupants and cargo
should never exceed 525 kg or
1,157 lbs".
For example, if the vehicle has one
occupant weighing 154 lbs (70 kg)
plus cargo weighing 882 lbs (400
kg).
Calculate the total weight.

Calculate the available load ca-
2.
pacity by subtracting the total

weight of 1,157 lbs (525 kg).
The result of step 2 shows that a
3.
further 121 lbs (55 kg) of cargo can
be carried.
