Auto34 Tire Changer

Innovative Leverless Tool Head

Leverless operation eliminates:

• Technicians straining to pull over tough beads.
• Damage of beads with thick levers.
• Rim damage from lever during demounting.

Demounting

Patented tool head inserts itself into tire, pulls bead over and demounts in one fluid down/up motion.

Mounting

Thin, broad head alleviates stress on the bead, while remaining strong enough to withstand the huge forces created by the most difficult tires.

Diameter Control

Simply pushing or pulling the single diameter control arm adjusts the tool head and rollers to the correct diameter. No other adjustment is needed, as the diameter is then set for all four tires.

Simple Controls

Three switches and one foot pedal control virtually all tire changing operations. With the most intuitive controls of any tire changer, the Auto34 delivers an unmatched cycle time, a short learning curve and few chances for mistakes. 1. Tool Head - raise and lower Raise to demount and pull over bead, lower to position and mount. 2. Upper Roller - raise and lower For bead loosening and mounting assistance. 3. Lower Roller - raise and lower For bead loosening and lower bead demounting. 4. Manual Controls For special applications (PAX) or other advanced techniques.

Simple Clamping

With three easily adjustable clamping heights, no flange plates are needed for most reverse wheels. All offsets and reverses are serviced at the same approximate height.

Rubber cover protects expensive reverse wheels from damage.   Anti-rotation pin extensions are used with reverse wheels. Cam Action As the wheel turns, the cam plate rises to exert additional gripping force on the wheel.

Blast Inflation

Handheld nozzle allows the technician to direct a large burst of compressed air exactly where needed to easily seat the bead. A compression trigger and foot pedal protect the operator from accidental discharge.

Bead Loosening Roller Auto Indention

A sensor on the bead loosening roller detects when the roller is under the bead and automatically indents. This allows the tire changer to roll the bead loose instead of forcing it like shovel systems. When backing out, the roller always moves away from the rim then out, to eliminate rim contact.

Bead Press Arm

Standard bead press arm assists in mounting difficult tires. The bead press arm is secured to the tool head controls and is cleared out of the way automatically as the tool head is raised.

Bead press arm during mounting, places tire in drop-center for mounting.

Bead press arm eases de-mounting of a standard tire. Used to press opposite side of tire into drop-center.

Match-Mounting

When used in conjunction with Hunter’s GSP9700 Road Force Measurement® System, the Auto34 quickly and easily helps to eliminate vibration problems that balancers alone can’t fix.

The GSP9700 uniquely identifies vibration that can often be eliminated by repositioning the tire on the rim.

The Auto34 makes match-mounting easy with bead rollers that allow the operator to spin the tire on the wheel regardless of aspect ratio or tire stiffness

Optional Wheel Lift

Optional wheel lift eases service of large assemblies, reduces operator fatigue and allows for more careful handling of expensive reverse wheels.
