To ensure the correct weight balance, take
your loaded motorhome to a weigh scale to
determine the actual weight distribution. After
you have done this once, you will have a better
understanding about how to load your vehicle
in the future.
Remember, your motorhome will handle
differently when towing a trailer, and stopping
distances will be longer. Make sure your trailer
is equipped with a braking system and is
properly connected to your motorhome.
When descending a steep or long grade,
reduce speed and shift to a lower gear to
control speed. Avoid prolonged or frequent
application of brakes to prevent overheating
and possible brake system failure. Refer to the
chassis manual in the Motorhome Information
Kit for further information.
