Towing: It is recommended that the rear tyres of the towing vehicle be increased
4 psi to improve towing vehicle stability and to compensate for drawbar load transfer.
If the tyre pressures have already been increased to compensate for the additional
load on the towing vehicle this recommendation should be ignored.
