Features
Optional Safety Restraint Arm*
- Positively restrains wheel and tire assembly to the tire changer during the inflation process
- Reduces potential for injury by the unlikely event of wheel or tire failure
- Simple swing-arm design easily swings in from the left
- Allows the technician to quickly and safely perform tire inflation without disturbing the tire changing procedure
- Positioning safety interlock switch ensures that the SRA is centered on the wheel and tire assembly before the inflation process can begin
- Anti-Rotation Lock prevents the SRA from moving during the inflation process or in the event of an accidental explosion
- Gravity lock engages automatically without operator intervention and ensures the wheel is secured prior to inflation
Ergonimically-Positioned Bead Breaker Control
- Pedal is positioned away from the bead breaker with a guard, preventing the operator from accidentally stepping on and activating it while standing next to the bead breaker
Integrated Pressure Limiter
- Stops air flow once pressure has reached 55 PSI (3.5 Bar), thereby preventing accidental tire over-inflation
Adjustable Four-Jaw Clamp
- Self-centering nylon-covered clamps grip securely and protect the wheel
- Reduced-angle jaws ensure no slippage
- Air inflation jets assist bead seating
Extra Wheel Protection
- Replaceable nylon inserts for demount heads prevent wheel scratching
- Replaceable polymer remount heads are also available for extended protection
Twin-Cylinder Clamping
- Two powerful clamping cylinders provide uniform clamping pressure and increased clamping power
Bead Breaker
- Provides precise power and can be toggled with the foot pedal as needed
- Both the stiffest and the softest sidewalls are a snap
- No damage to tires while loosening the bead
