G'day,

I thought of something else while I was in the shower before dinner.

Would it be better to position the coach so that it was 1/2 off and 1/2 on the scales? I'll say that another way as it is confusing.

Should the center of the coach be positioned directly over the edge of the scale platform?

Regards,
Rob M.

Theoretically it should make no difference. The scale should accurately record weight no matter where that weight is applied on the scale. Where the GMC is positioned makes no difference either. Think of Statics class and do the diagram. Now as a practical matter I would want to get the wheels as close as possible to the center of the scale.
