MTPLM / Caravan weight / Troll 530t 2001

After studying the forum last weekend for Tyre advise I am definitely sticking to the original fitted profile of 185 70R 13 86T for my Troll 530t 2001.
In the Dutch paperwork, the "caravan licence" that came with it it states:
Max mass voertuig, which I think means,Maximum Vehicle weight = 840kg =does this mean MIRO?
Below this it says>
Max last as (assummer), which I think means , Maximum weight=100kg = does this mean Max Gross Weight?
Then it says:
Laadvermogen, I can't find a translation for this=160kg , is this the total carrying capacity,i.e. 1160kg?

I know one or two of you will have the same 2001 Troll 530 gt 1000gk model as me , I want to get my head round all these definitions MIRO, MAM, MTPLM>
Perhaps someone can put me right.
Thanks,

Highmiler.

the first is maunufactuers empty basic weight of this model of eriba, your eriba may be heavier or lighter, hence why you should weight it empty of clothes and buckets spades
think the next is what you can carry in it clothes and the options that are fitted, like motormovers and fitter roof awnings, mud flaps, spare wheels
think the next is the maximum the caravan can weight when loaded before overloading the axle

Ok , apologies that should have been 1000kg not 100kg as I stated.
So the MIRO is the 840kg
The MTPLM is 1000kg, making the difference( what we can add in, spare tyres, luggage, and movers etc) 160kg
As I have a spare wheel and Reich mover already fitted, that is going to cut my 160kg down considerably.
I know the reich mover weighs 36kg, leisure battery 23.7gk, and the spare wheel weighs 14.2kg (1999, never used, hence the new tyres),my payload is down to
86kg,so anything heavy must go in the car.
However some allowance must be made for gas, water carried , we generally don't travel with water in the caravan.I seem to remember that i read 90% of the capable water tank amount is allowed for in the MIRO, am I correct?

Yes, that how we've read it with ours although we think the spare wheel is part of the MIRO (not that it helps much).

Can't help regarding the water tank.

Thanks to Pop540 and Randa, well I am up on what I thought by 14kg, back to a payload of approx100kg.
Better than I thought.
