Example:
The motorhome must be weighed fully loaded to obtain accurate scale
readings and to determine the proper tire pressure.
• Take the rear axle Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) and divide
it by two. Record the figure next to scale B, GAWR ÷ 2. Example:
If rear axle GAWR is 13,000 lbs. GAWR ÷ 2 would be 6,500 lbs.
• Weigh the driver's side rear corner (scale B) and record the scale
reading next to Gross Axle Weight (GAW) for scale B. Example:
Scale B reading is 5,100 lbs.
• Repeat procedure for the rest of the scale readings.
• Add the GAWR from scales B and D and enter the sum next to the
final GAWR. Example 13,000.
• Add the GAW from scales B and D and enter this sum next to the
final GCAW. Example: 10,000.
• Compare scale readings GCAW against GAWR readings. All figures
on line 2 are not to exceed figures on line 1.
• Use tire chart with scale reading to determine correct tire pressure.
NOTE: Scale readings and Gross Axle Weight Ratings are fictitious.
Actual scale readings and Gross Axle Weight Ratings will vary
with model and options.
