axle GAWR, or the chassis GCWR by the com-
bined loaded weight of the coach and the towed
vehicle. See preceding items "Loading the Vehi-
cle" and "Weighing Your Loaded Vehicle" for
explanation of weight ratings.
Because of individual vehicle use and loading
habits, we recommend weighing the vehicle
while fully loaded to avoid exceeding any of the
listed Gross Weight Ratings. See "Vehicle Certi-
fication Label" in the Introduction Section for
information on gross weight ratings.
Towing will affect vehicle handling, durabili-
ty and fuel economy. Exceeding any of the listed
Gross Weight Ratings will result in unacceptable
overall vehicle performance. Maximum safety
and satisfaction when towing depends on proper
use of correct equipment. Select a drawbar that
mates properly with the towing hitch receiver and
provides proper alignment to the vehicle tow bar.
The tongue of the tow bar must be as close as pos-
sible to parallel with the ground when attached to
the hitch ball.
Installation of a proper trailer brake system is
recommended. Check state regulations on trailer
weight and trailer brake requirements to be sure
you select the right equipment before towing.
NOTE: If you tow a car or trailer that weighs
over 1,000 lbs., it must be equipped with
automatically activated brakes.
Before descending a steep or long grade when
towing a trailer, reduce speed and shift into a
lower gear to control vehicle speed. Avoid pro-
longed or frequent application of brakes which
could cause overheating and brake failure.
WARNING
For safety towing and vehicle han-
dling, maintain proper trailer weight
distribution.
The total weight of the motor home
and the vehicle towed must not
exceed the Gross Combined Vehicle
Weight rating. Contact the chassis
manufacturer to obtain the Gross
Combined Vehicle Weight rating for
your chassis.
CAUTION
Exceeding any of the recommended
gross vehicle weight ratings may re-
sult in vehicle damage.
Do not install a frame equalizing type
hitch on your vehicle.
