Front Axle Reserve Capacity in Pounds (kgs): On
the sample label, this value is given as 83
pounds (38 kgs). Does this mean that you are
limited to adding only 83 pounds (38 kgs) of
accessories to the front end capacity? Not
exactly. This says that you can load 83 pounds
(38 kgs) of options on the front axle, add 150
pound (68 kgs) passengers to all seating
positions, and add evenly distributed cargo in
the box without exceeding the GAWR F.

It is possible to hang heavier equipment on the
front as long as the vehicle owner/operator
compensates. This can be accomplished, if
necessary, by carrying fewer passengers, less
cargo or positioning cargo more toward the rear,
which has the effect of reducing the load on the
front. Keep in mind that the GAWR F, GAWR
R, nor the GVWR should ever be exceeded.

Total Accessory Reserve Capacity in Pounds
(kgs): On the sample label this value is given as
112 pounds (51 kgs). This is a number that is
related to government crash test standards, and
only indirectly reflects on the amount of
accessory weight that can be carried.

[DR32050( ALL)06/94]
In the case of both these numbers (83 and 112
pounds) (38 and 51 kgs), the important thing to
remember is that for safe operation, an
owner/operator should calculate the amount and
the distribution of all weights (passengers,
accessory equipment and cargo). These combined
weights should fall below the vehicle’s GVWR
and GAWR.
