Caravan and traile r loads
The permissible caravan/trailer loads are
vehicle- and eng ine-dependent m aximum
values which must not be exceed ed. The
actual carav an/trailer load is the difference
between the actual gross weight of the
caravan/trailer and the actual coupling
socket load with the caravan/trailer
coupled. When the carava n/trailer load is
being checked, therefore, only the
caravan/trailer w heels – and not the jock ey
wheel – must be standing on the weighing
apparatus.
