Before You Travel; Weights And Cargo Capacity - Jayco Jay Feather 2005 Owner's Manual

WEIGHTS AND CARGO CAPACITY

The safety of your travel will be affected by your understanding of weights and cargo
distribution for your trailer. Read, understand and follow all information related to the
weight of your trailer. We provide the following labels on your trailer (copies are printed
here):
• The "Federal Certification"
label (Fig. 1) is affixed to the
roadside front corner of your
trailer. It lists the vehicle
weights as well as the tire and
axle rating information.
• The "Trailer Weight
Information" label (Fig. 2) is
typically located inside a lower
cabinet close to the entrance
door. This label is critical in
understanding trailer weight
definitions. Please read,
understand and follow all of
these definitions. In addition to
the label information, the
GAWR is the maximum weight
rating that components of each
axle are designed to support
(i.e. tires, brakes, springs, axle).
Information that seems unclear
should be discussed with your
independent, authorized dealer.
The weights of your unit are the
model's dry weights with standard
equipment. It is critical that you
do not exceed the gross vehicle
weight rating (GVWR) of your
trailer. As you begin to load your
personal cargo, remember that what
you load as well as options that
have been added will affect the
overall weight. Never exceed the
gross vehicle weight rating of
your unit.
