be: 635 kilograms - (2 x 99

kilograms) - (12 x 45 kilograms) =

635 - 198 - 540 = -103 kilograms.

You will need to reduce the load

weight by at least 240 pounds
(104 kilograms). If you remove
three 100-pound (45-kilogram)
cement bags, then the load
calculation would be: 1400 - (2 x
220) - (9 x 100) = 1400 - 440 -
900 = 60 pounds. Now you have
the load capacity to transport the
cement and your friend home. In
metric units, the calculation would
be: 635 kilograms - (2 x 99
kilograms) - (9 x 45 kilograms) =

635 - 198 - 405 = 32 kilograms.
The above calculations also
assume that the loads are

positioned in your vehicle in a

manner that does not overload

the Front or the Rear Gross Axle
Weight Rating specified for your

vehicle on the Safety Compliance

Certification Label. The label shall

be affixed to either the door hinge

pillar, door-latch post, or the door
edge that meets the door-latch

post, next to the driver's seating
position.
