71.CTC-TILT-Manual (HAMMERHEAD PRO FULLY AUTOMATIC TILT)Product Summary:
The HAMMERHEAD PRO Automatic Tilt Tyre Changer is a premium, fully automatic tyre changer featuring a tilt-back column and an integrated Help Arm System, engineered for high-efficiency, safe, and ergonomic tyre handling in busy automotive workshops. Built for strength and precision, this machine simplifies the mounting and demounting of modern tyre assemblies including run-flats and low-profile tyres.
Key Features & Functional Advantages
- Tilt-Back Design:
Offers enhanced clearance and operator space. Unlike side-swing models, tilt-back arms automatically retract, allowing faster wheel changes and minimizing rim contact risks. - Help Arm System:
A powerful multi-function assist arm with a rotating arm, bead pressing roller, tyre lifting roller, and pressing head. Ideal for mounting/demounting stiff or performance tyres. - Heavy-Duty Bead Breaker:
Four-position adjustable bead breaker with a strong shovel and safety buffer to handle wide and high-profile tyres easily. - User-Friendly Operation Pedals:
Four pneumatic pedals control jaw clamping, turntable direction, bead breaking, and tilt-back mechanisms—all foot-operated for hands-free convenience.
Advantages of Tilt-Back Over Side-Swing Arm Tyre Changers
- Faster Setup: No manual repositioning of the column after every tyre—just tilt back and go.
- Better Clearance: Easier access for larger rims and deep-dish wheels.
- Improved Ergonomics: Reduces bending and strain, improving operator comfort.
- Higher Throughput: Ideal for high-volume shops with frequent tyre changes.
