6-14 Operation
Make sure cargo in the trailer cannot
move around. A shifting load can cause
an accident.
● Make sure the load does not interfere
with controls or your ability to see where
you are going.
● Drive more slowly than you would without
a load. The more weight you carry, the
slower you should go. Although
conditions vary, it is good practice not to
exceed low range whenever you are
carrying heavier loads or when towing a
trailer.
● Allow more braking distance. A heavier
vehicle takes longer to stop.
● Avoid making sharp turns unless at very
slow speeds.
● Avoid hills and rough terrain. Choose
terrain carefully. Added weight affects the
stability and handling of the vehicle.
