  • All permissible vehicle weights, such as maximum weight, axle loads, etc., must be taken into account before loading and must not be exceeded.
  • The center of gravity of the load must not be too high (top-heavy) and in the middle in the longitudinal direction.
  • The load should be distributed according to the load distribution plan for the vehicle. The way in which the load must be distributed will be different for each vehicle.
  • Complying with the load distribution plan ensures that the relevant axle load limits will not be exceeded.
  • The driver should carry the load distribution diagram along in the vehicle.
