the blipper has a payload of 690kg taking off 2 people. lets say 100kg each leaving just under 500kg to play with.

but then it comes down to sepearte axle weights and on that i have not got a clue.

i was pulled over in a works van about 12 years ago and escorted to the weigh bridge, found to be overall within the weight but too much of the load was on the rear axle,
result....... £500 fine and 4 points!

i was told at the time for future reference that should i have any doubt head for the nearest public weigh bridge and get it checked, also your within the law so long as its your first port of call.

should you be over weight its simply a case of redistubuting the load or getting another vehicle on site an splitting it.

look your nearest one up and head down once loaded.
its the only safe way of finding the answer.
