Sorry g__day, didn't see your post at first.
I am not sure what the "rated" capacity is, and from internet reading it appears they are conservative, rather than optimistic, but I recall about 15 kilos as being a figure they used.
I used the 10" newt for quite a while when it weighed about 14 kilos, plus the assorted other stuff that you use when imaging, with no problems, whatsoever. I must admit that I felt the G11 I had wasn't as happy with this sort of load, but it managed, whereas the AP seems to be quite happy.
