■ Total trailer weight and permissible drawbar load
Total trailer weight
Weight of the trailer itself plus the
trailer load should be within the max-
imum towing capacity. Exceeding
this weight is dangerous. (P. 590)
When towing a trailer, use a friction
coupler or friction stabilizer (sway
control device).
When the total trailer weight is over
2000 kg (4409 lb.), a friction stabi-
lizer (sway control device) is
required.
Permissible drawbar load
Allocate the trailer load so that the drawbar load is greater than 25 kg (55.1 lb.) or
4 % of the towing capacity. Do not let the drawbar load exceed the indicated
weight. (P. 590)
