Sorry tw is 620
That's a lot better than the 520, but still watch how you load as you are at the lower end of what is suggested. Obviously this varies from trailer to trailer, but wanted to mention it just in case you weren't aware of it.
Any trailer running an average GVW loaded & ready to camp of ~ 5500 lbs should also be running an average gross tongue weight of ~ 750 lbs (13% to 14%), just as was the case with my previous KZ Spree. The reason the OP's 246RKS, with an average GVW of 5500 lbs, is running an unusually low gross tongue weight of just over 11% is obvious - it's a rear kitchen model with heavy items such as the fridge located aft of the axles, so the advice to "watch how you load" is especially important. :)
