Maximum trailer weight for all cutaway (E-350 and E-450) vehicles
must be calculated by subtracting the weight of the vehicle (including
incomplete vehicle weight and payload which includes second unit
body weight, cargo and passengers) from the GCW. Otherwise,
maximum trailer weight is 10000 lb (4536 kg).

For high altitude operation reduce GCWR by 2% per 1000 ft. (300 m)
elevation.
To determine the maximum trailer weight designed for your particular
vehicle as equipped, follow the section Vehicle loading - with and
without a trailer
earlier in this chapter.

Preparing to tow

Use the proper equipment for towing a trailer and make sure it is
properly attached to your vehicle. Contact your authorized dealer or a
reliable trailer dealer as soon as possible if you require assistance.
