Engine ● The different adhesion coefficient of differ- ent road surfaces will affect the vehicle's climbing ability and its gradient angle. Information on gradient angle: ● The vehicle's load distribution can impact its climbing performance, and it is important to evenly distribute the load between the front and rear axles. ● The tyre pressure should match the values specified on the label inside the tank cap, and the tyre tread depth should be at least 90% of a new tyre. Weights and axle loads All data in the official vehicle documents always takes precedence. The data in this manual applies to the basic model with basic equipment.
The type and model of the engine are listed on the model plate → Fig. 161 and in the technical data of the vehicle in the Maintenance Manual or in the vehicle registration document the complete vehicle's weight, including the body, all electrical components, and necessary equipment for normal operation. The payload of the vehicle is calculated as the rated total weight minus the curb weight. Therefore, installing or modifying equipment and accessories will increase the curb weight and re- duce the vehicle's payload accordingly. The specified values can vary due to additional equipment, different model versions, and also for special vehicles.
The vehicle's payload consists of the following weights: The table below displays the vehicle's curb weight, which includes the dry weight of the ve- hicle along with various fluids and fuel (not less than 90% of the fuel tank capacity), spare wheel, and accessories. → . The dry weight refers to – Occupants. – Cargo and any loaded items. – Roof load, including roof carrier system.
