2.2 Single-Sided Weight Distribution
The weights must never exceed the
- permissible total weight
- permitted front-axle weight
- permitted rear-axle weight.
When projecting attachments/upgrades, it has to be ensured that a single-sided weight distribution is avoided - in particular if fixed attachments are to be installed. If it is not possible to adhere to this recommendation, the single-sided load may only result in a maximum difference between the wheel loads of 4%.
Example:
Permitted axle load | 1.430 kg |
Theoretical wheel load left/right | 715 kg/715 kg |
4% of this wheel load | 29 kg |
Permitted wheel load distribution left/right | 686 kg/744 kg |
To ensure a sufficient manoeuvrability and a satisfying driving behaviour of the vehicle in all loading states, the minimum front-axle load must be 965 kg.
