THOR Class C Series Owner's Manual page 59

THE Motorhome FULLY LOADED AND THE TRAILER, OR TOWED VEHICLE, MUST
NOT EXCEED THE Motorhome CHASSIS' GROSS COMBINED WEIGHT RATING
(GCWR). Consult with your selling dealer to determine the GCWR of the motorhome.
Do not exceed the motorhome gross combined weight rating (GCWR) or the hitch
rating. The tongue weight, the weight pushing down on the hitch, must not exceed
10% of the hitch capacity.
DO NOT TOW LOADS THAT EXCEED THE GROSS COMBINED VEHICLE WEIGHT
RATING OR OTHER TOW RATINGS OF THIS MOTORHOME.
THE DESIGNATED HITCH RATING MAY EXCEED THE GCWR OR OTHER TOWING
CAPACITY LIMITS OF THE MOTORHOME. It is your responsibility to properly load
the motorhome, while staying within the tow ratings, gross combined and gross
vehicle weight ratings.
Always use safety chains between your motorhome and the towed trailer or vehicle. Cross the
chains under the trailer tongue and allow slack for turning corners. Connect the safety chains
to the trailer or vehicle frame or hook retainers. Never attach safety chains to the bumper of a
vehicle.
Tow bars or car dollies generally are made to travel in a forward direction only. Most towing
equipment of this type is not designed for backing. Never attempt short back up distances with
a tow bar or tow dolly. Damage to the motorhome, towed vehicle or towing device will result.

NOTE: Thor Motor Coach accepts no
responsibility for damage to the chassis
and other components resulting from
towing loads greater than its designated
class specifications. Also consider the
gross combined weight rating (GCWR) of
the motorhome before towing a trailer or
vehicle. Towing an object such as a boat,
trailer, or vehicle behind the motorhome
results in added driving considerations that
you must contend with.
