DEFINITION

Classification: 180/24.02

(1) Note. Under part (2) of the above definition it is considered that wheels mounted on opposite ends of a rocker beam or the equivalent thereof and thereby having relative vertical movement do not constitute load shifting or proportioning wheels for classification here and classification thereof will be based on other vehicle features classifiable in subclass 22 of this class or the subclasses indented thereunder.
