Being within the correct nose weight is vital for safe towing. Nose weight gauges help you check that your caravan is within the limits for your tow car and not nose-heavy. Note that whilst reducing weight over the front of the caravan can reduce nose weight, heavy weights should be distributed over the caravan axle, and NOT at the back to counterbalance the nose weight - this can make your outfit prone to pitching, being both dangerous and uncomfortable.
