Tilt-Tower Design with Power Assist for Safer, Faster Tire Changes
When it comes to your tire repair business, the Ranger R76ATR-L delivers everything you need for safer, faster tire changes—even when working with tricky aluminum wheels or stubborn low-profile tires. The tilt-back tower design saves significant time when loading a new set of wheels: no more constant adjustments to match each wheel's diameter. The single-tower power assist on the right side helps change low-profile and run-flat tires (anything with a stiff sidewall), holding the bead securely in the drop-center and protecting the tire from damage. Adjustable, extraordinarily easy-to-use RimGuard™ wheel clamps provide internal clamping from 10" to 30" and external clamping from 8" to 26". A centering cone assists with external clamping, and a specialized saucer/roller combination offers yet another line of defense against stubborn beads.
Our Most Specialized, Versatile Tire Changer
Ergonomic controls are sensibly placed to minimize excessive reaching, walking, or bending, resulting in more jobs per day and increased profits. Other time-saving features include a multi-profile traveling drop-center tool, top bead assist rollers, lower bead lifting disc, and a nylon non-marring wheel restraint device. These important tire shop tools are designed to dramatically reduce effort, increase safety, and help minimize operator fatigue. A large 30" capacity turntable features adjustable, hardened-steel RimGuard™ wheel clamps that accommodate wheels from 9" up to 30", with internal and external multi-teeth jaws and vertical mounting bolts that make replacement fast and simple.
Electric Turntable with High-Torque Drive
A high-torque electric turntable drive (powered by 110 VAC) features increased speed and reversible direction for quicker tire removal and installation. Controlled speed gives low-profile and run-flat beads time to relax and reduces the risk of tire damage. The advanced drive belt system is crafted with convex sidewalls that structurally carry and disperse stress throughout the unit's structure. Oil, weather, age, and other factors do not affect belt performance, thanks to flex-bonded cords and flex-weave covers that protect the system at all times.
Advanced Clamp Positioning and Easier Bead Lubrication
Versatile clamp positioning allows for improved control when clamping wheels. Position clamps exactly where you need them within the entire clamping range—no need for the clamps to cycle the full range. A geometric tabletop makes bead lubrication easy, and operators are able to visibly inspect the lower bead during tire mounting and inflation.
Proprietary Bead-Breaker Design
A completely new and proprietary bead-breaker design features bilateral pneumatic accelerators for lightning-fast bead-breaker speeds in both directions. A 100% stainless steel cylinder body means no more worrying about moisture contamination from corrosion. Other exclusive design features include a multi-axis, adjustable blade for multi-angle tire capacity, a large, dual-flange axle that eliminates blade flex and premature failure, and adjustable blade settings that help accommodate a larger variety of tire and wheel combinations. The enhanced bead-breaker blade features rugged box frame construction that increases mechanical strength, service life, and overall performance. A large rubber bump-stop assures smooth return to help reduce shock loading and minimize wear on the pneumatic cylinder, guides, and associated moving parts.
Balanced Flywheel and Simple Foot-Pedal Control
A balanced flywheel reduces vibrations during operation, as well as stress on the machine as a whole. Well-balanced flywheels keep our tire changers running smoothly for years of zero or low-maintenance operation. Rather than heavy, clunky cast iron, we make our foot pedals from forged steel that is durable enough for daily use in fast-paced shops and tire centers. The snap action spring return offers extremely accurate and safe operation, while the foot-pedal control valves are complete with multi-link rod connections for non-binding plunger movement and precise bilateral control.
Right-Side Tower Drop-Center Design
The right-side assist tower features a multi-profile traveling drop-center tool that holds stubborn sidewalls in the drop-center area of the wheel for swift, precise mounting. A single lower-bead lifting disc can be used to unseat stubborn lower beads or to elevate tires for tool placement. A power-drop top bead assist roller helps hold difficult top beads in place during removal and installation of tough sidewall tires. These important tire shop tools dramatically reduce the effort required to change difficult, low-profile tires and help minimize operator fatigue. Upfront trigger control and articulating arm allow for variable tire and wheel configurations. A heavy-duty, tri-flange, cast-iron assist tower carriage features linear way bearings for maintenance-free operation.
Tilt-Back Tower for More Ground Clearance
Ranger uses a tilt-back tower design for this tire changer because it offers more ground clearance, as well as easier removal and inflation of tires. If you're using like sets of tires and wheels, a pneumatically locked tool head will remain in place on the tower return, allowing for more rapid setup on your next job.
Stainless Steel and Aluminum Pneumatic Cylinders
All pneumatic cylinders prevent the tire changer from overly vibrating, reducing friction and contributing to the long lifespan of the equipment. End-of-stroke cushions are included to extend the life of all seals, as well as the wear band and piston rods. The entire cylinder system on the tire changer is self-lubricating and low-maintenance throughout the course of ownership.
Multi-Function Mount and Demount Head
The equi-dimensional shape of the hardened steel mount/demount head lets you change functions without moving the tool head. The remarkably smooth surface gently glides tire beads during mounting/demounting and prevents expensive tire damage. Additionally, a nylon tool head comes standard. Protect your customers' expensive alloy rims and wheels from marring or damage when mounting with our durable nylon tool head that comes as a standard accessory.
Spring-Assisted Tool Shaft and Guide Bearings
In order to prevent wheel damage, Ranger's mount/demount tool heads feature hardened-steel horizontal outrigger support arms, as well as a rigid 45 mm spring-assisted hexagonal vertical tool shaft. These standard features keep the tool head in the precise position you set it during service. Linear guide bearings make it easy to adjust both vertical and horizontal wheel settings. The horizontal arm's hardened lower roller guide assists in maintaining an even-tempo for the arm's oscillating movements. Durable rubber bump-stops ensure a safe return during tilt-back operations and lessen shock loading. Wear is minimal on tower guides and other moving parts.
Foot-Controlled Tire Inflator and TurboBlast™ Bead Seating
Tire changers require two hands to operate, so we keep both of your hands free with our easy-to-use foot pedal tire inflator. A push-button air pressure dump valve is integrated into the unit, letting you release tire pressure as necessary. Ranger's TurboBlast™ bead seating system efficiently shoots a burst of air between the tire and rim, seating beads quickly without doing damage to the tire structure. For a more controlled air discharge, the system features a nylon discharge barrel with a contoured tab that locks against the rim.
Optional Motorcycle Clamps Available
If your shop services motorcycles, or you'd like to expand your business, Ranger offers an optional series of turntable clamps specifically designed to cater to motorcycle wheels and tires.
