Maximum Permissible Axle Load in Relation to Tires (Normal Operation)

IMPORTANT: The maximum permissible axle load must never be exceeded even though the tire load capacity is higher.

NOTE: The axle loads quoted here for normal operation apply only for travel speeds up to 40 km/h (25 mph) and at recommended inflation pressure.

NOTE: Traffic regulations in certain countries may restrict the permissible axle loads and total weight to figures lower than those quoted in the tables.

NOTE: Maximum tire load capacity depends on the recommended tire pressure. Use of tires with a load capacity exceeding the front-wheel drive axle load capacity allows lowering of the recommended tire pressure without any effect on the permissible front axle load. This can be advantageous when operating in difficult ground conditions. When reducing the tire pressure, refer to load capacity tables and tire pressure recommendations of the relevant tire manufacturers.
