Wireless Network Adaptor Streamlines Access to Hunter Online Services
Wireless Internet access is an ideal application of new technology to increase speed, efficiency and simplicity in the service bay.	Shops subscribing to Hunter Online Internet-based information services can now go wireless. Wireless Network Kits, available from Hunter, connect Series 811 alignment systems to a shop's existing 802.11 a/b/g wireless network. Wireless access is the most convenient and efficient way to bring Internet-based services into the alignment bay, eliminating extra cables that clutter a shop and inhibit console mobility. The Hunter Online suite of online tools includes WebSpecs.NET, ShopResults.NET and UnderCarInfo.NET. These features harness the power of the Internet to boost shop productivity and customer satisfaction.

ShopResults.NET also provides alignment record storage on a secure Web server with easy access by technicians or shop management.

New Tire Changer Options Expand Capacity, Boost Productivity and Promote Safety
PAX® Tire System Kits Cut Costs, Eliminating Need for Additional Dedicated Equipment PAX® Tire System kits are now available for Hunter TC3500, TC3250, TCX550BPS and TCX500BPS models, offering shops a wide choice of tire changer types that can handle both conventional bead and PAX system tires. Hunter tire changing equipment is approved for servicing Michelin® PAX Tire Systems.

PAX® Orbiter Workstation Once the tire is removed from the rim, the patented Orbiter Workstation simplifies insertion and extraction of the PAX support ring. The system operates with a single foot pedal and is designed to keep the operator’s hands free to handle the tire.

Wheel Lifts Reduce Fatigue and Potential for Injury Optional pneumatic wheel lift devices for Hunter’s TC3500 and TC3250 Euro-style and TCX500 and TCX550 traditional-style tire changers can dramatically reduce operator fatigue and the possibility of injury by eliminating manual lifting during wheel mounting and demounting. The pedal-controlled lifts quickly raise and position wheels to match the tire changer’s clamping system. Polymer-coated contact points protect the wheel’s finish. The lifting capacity is 140 to 165 pounds depending on the model.

EVO 26-Inch Capacity Wheel Clamping Kit Hunter’s new EVO Large Wheel Clamping Upgrade Kit increases TC3500/TC3250 Tire Changer wheel service capacity to 26 inches in diameter. The kit also provides additional clamping methods thereby enhancing the tire changer’s ability to handle many difficult-to-handle high-performance and custom reverse drop-center wheels. Kit components can be ordered separately to customize EVO systems according to service needs.
