Help please!!!!!  sorry, another noseweight Q

collected new bailey ranger, dutifully used my noseweight gauge to check as started to pack it, noticed it was 120kg before starting (gas bottle and battery already in situ), is this right, is the gauge wrong, i presumed it would be fairly low to start with or do you have to pack at the back initially to overcome this.

many thanks - ansy

The noseweight should be more or less the same wether the 'van is full or empty.

You certainly shouldn't have to load the rear of the 'van under any circumstances.

Check with your bathroom scales.

thanks

i think one of my probs may have been that the top of the noseweight gauge is a lot lower than the towball which i understand can increase the value
