    Chassis All MDC chassis are fully engineered and verified using Finite Element Analysis (FEA) software. This ensures that the chassis for each model passes the relevant regulations and design rules as originally provided to the customer. Any modification to the chassis or drawbar whatsoever (no matter how minor) will inevitably change this – whether it impacts the towing dynamics, expected loads and stress points, safety chain attachment points, overall trailer length etc.
  • Page 12: Tire Safety - Everything Rides On It

    Tire Safety – Everything Rides on it The National Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has published a brochure (DOT HS 809 361) that discusses all aspects of Tire Safety, as required by CFR 575.6. This brochure is reproduced in part below. It can be obtained and downloaded from NHTSA, free of charge, from the following web site: http://www.nhtsa.dot.gov/cars/rules/TireSafety/ ridesonit/tires_index.html Studies of tire safety show that maintaining proper tire pressure, observing tire and vehicle load limits (not carrying...
  • Page 13: Understanding Tire Pressure And Load Limits

    Understanding Tire Pressure and Load Limits Tire inflation pressure is the level of air in the tire that provides it with load-carrying capacity and affects the overall performance of the vehicle. The tire inflation pressure is a number that indicates the amount of air pressure– measured in pounds per square inch (psi)–a tire requires to be properly inflated.
  • Page 14: Tire Size

    Tire Size To maintain tire safety, purchase new tires that are the same size as the vehicle’s original tires, or another size recommended by the manufacturer. Look at the tire information placard, the owner’s manual, or the sidewall of the tire you are replacing to find this information.
  • Page 15 The “P” indicates the tire is for passenger vehicles. Next number This three-digit number gives the width in millimetres of the tire from sidewall edge to sidewall edge. In general, the larger the number, the wider the tire. Next number This two-digit number, known as the aspect ratio, gives the tire’s ratio of height to width.
  • Page 16: Treadwear Number Utqgs Information

    Treadwear Number UTQGS Information This number indicates the tire’s wear rate. The higher the treadwear number is, the longer it should take for the tread to wear down. For example, a tire graded 400 should last twice as long as a tire graded 200. Traction Letter This letter indicates a tire’s ability to stop on wet pavement.
  • Page 17: Additional Information On Light Truck Tires

    Additional Information on Light Truck Tires Please refer to the following diagram. Tires for light trucks have other markings besides those found on the sidewalls of passenger tires. The “LT” indicates the tire is for light trucks or trailers. An “ST” is an indication the tire is for trailer use only. Max.

    Care and Maintenance of the Trailer Protection of Finishes Paint The paint coatings on your trailer are no different to that of your car in that they need regular care and maintenance. Rubber seals and applied sealants on trailers can shed polymers and pigments that can stain paint finishes if your trailer isn’t washed regularly.
  • Page 42: Corrosion Protection

    Fabrics Fabrics may not be colorfast and should be washed gently by hand on their own or dry cleaned. Corrosion Protection Reasonable steps should be made by the customer to protect the product from corrosion. Seaside areas, areas with high salt contents in soil and roads that are salted during snow conditions can greatly accelerate corrosion. When used in these areas the product should be thoroughly washed after use and unpainted metal surfaces should be coated in a suitable protectant.
  • Page 43: Trailer Body Maintenance

    Trailer Body Maintenance Locks and Latches Locks need regular maintenance to ensure they operate correctly and stay free from corrosion. Diligent use of WD40 or Inox will help in this regard. Both locks and latches need to be checked for adjustment to ensure correct seal compression.
