A bead blaster releases a large, sudden volume of air into the tyre through nozzles in the turntable, so the beads slap outward against the rim flanges and seal long enough for the inflator to take over. Without one, a stiff-sidewall tyre, a run-flat, or anything that has sat folded in a warehouse gets wrestled with a ratchet strap and patience, and it is the job that turns a fifteen-minute tyre change into forty minutes and a bad mood. With one, it is a lever pull.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAround that sits a full rim-clamp, swing-arm tyre changer with air-operated jaws and bead breaker, an electric turntable, and a mount\/demount head with a metal roller and replaceable plastic inserts. It is aimed at a home shop with real ambitions, a small commercial garage, or a powersports dealer.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eWhat it will take, and one honest caveat\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe jaws clamp externally or internally, each in three selectable positions along the turntable slide, and the machine handles steel, aluminium and alloy rims. Maximum tyre diameter is \u003cstrong\u003e39 inches\u003c\/strong\u003e and maximum wheel width at the bead breaker is 13 inches. The full clamping ranges are in the specification table further down this page — check yours against them, and note that external clamping starts at 9 3\/4 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eNow the caveat, because this page's own copy names the ATV and motorcycle dealer as a buyer. In its standard configuration this machine's jaws are built for car and light-truck rims. Working small ATV wheels and motorcycle rims on a machine of this type is done with flip adapters, and those adapters are \u003cstrong\u003enot included\u003c\/strong\u003e — Atlas offers them separately. \u003cstrong\u003eIf motorcycle or ATV work is why you are buying this machine, ask us in writing which adapter set fits it and what the resulting clamping range is before you order.\u003c\/strong\u003e We would rather answer that question now than have you discover it with the crate open.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eWill It Fit — your shop\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ePower.\u003c\/strong\u003e The turntable motor is 1 HP on \u003cstrong\u003e110 volt\u003c\/strong\u003e.

The jaws and the bead breaker are air operated and the air supply is \u003cstrong\u003enot included\u003c\/strong\u003e. The machine wants 90 to \u003cstrong\u003e110 PSI\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003emust not exceed 140 PSI\u003c\/strong\u003e — that upper figure is a limit, not a target, and a regulator set carelessly is how the pneumatics get damaged. If you do not already own a compressor that holds pressure at the far end of a hose run, budget for one alongside this machine.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eBead breaker force\u003c\/strong\u003e is 5,500 lbs, which is what gets a rusted-on bead off a wheel that has not been touched in a decade.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eTurntable torque\u003c\/strong\u003e is 885 ft\/lbs.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFloor and assembly.\u003c\/strong\u003e The TC229 requires some assembly after purchase — this is stated plainly by the manufacturer and we are repeating it rather than leaving it as a surprise.

Tell us the rims you handle most and we will check them against the clamping ranges in writing.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eNot damaging the wheel is the whole job\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eOn a modern intake, most of the value in a tyre changer is in what it does \u003cem\u003enot\u003c\/em\u003e do to an expensive alloy. Three parts of this machine address that directly. The turntable jaws take plastic covers, so the clamping faces are not steel against a painted or polished rim. The mount\/demount head carries replaceable plastic inserts as an alternative to the metal roller, and a set of spares is supplied — those inserts are consumable by design, and running them worn is how rims get marked. And the bead breaker shovel takes its own plastic cover. A machine that arrives with all three is a machine that can be used on customer wheels from the first day rather than after a parts order.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eClamping in three positions, and why that is not a gimmick\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe jaws move to three mounting positions along the turntable slide, in both the external and internal arrangements. That is a wider practical range than a fixed-jaw machine, and more importantly it lets you choose the position that grips a particular rim most securely rather than the only position available. On thin-lipped alloys, where the jaw sits on the rim decides whether it holds or slips, and slipping under torque is what damages a wheel.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003ePerfect For\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eA small commercial garage\u003c\/strong\u003e adding tyre work in-house instead of subcontracting it.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eA serious home or club workshop\u003c\/strong\u003e with a compressor already installed.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eA powersports or ATV dealer\u003c\/strong\u003e — but read the adapter caveat above first.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eNot\u003c\/strong\u003e for the larger pickup (1 ton), large SUV or agricultural tyres. The manufacturer directs that work to the larger TC289, and we would rather sell you the right machine once.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eWhat is in the box\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eGenerous, and worth comparing before you price this against something cheaper. Per this page's feature list: the column-mounted inflator box with gauge, a filter\/regulator\/lubricator, a 20 inch tyre tool, a lube bucket with brush, a set of large plastic jaw covers, the plastic cover for the bead breaker shovel, and multiple replacement plastic inserts for the mount\/demount head. Not included: the air supply, the motorcycle and ATV flip adapters, and assembly. Atlas states replacement parts and wear items are kept in stock, which is the difference between a day of downtime and a month of it.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eCertification, stated plainly\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eNo third-party safety listing or conformity marking is claimed for this tyre changer anywhere in our product data, and we are not going to imply one. If your insurer or your local authority requires a specific listing for shop equipment, ask us in writing before ordering and we will put the question to Atlas rather than answer on their behalf.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eShipping and delivery\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis is a freight shipment inside the lower 48 states, quoted live at checkout rather than printed here, because freight rates move. Two things decide whether delivery day goes well. First, unloading is yours to arrange: a freight truck will not lift the crate off the trailer for you, so you need a forklift, a skid steer or a comparable machine at the delivery address, or you take the shipment at the carrier terminal instead. Tell us which before it ships. Second, inspect before you sign. Walk the crate, look for crushed corners, punctures, shifted banding and oil marks, and write anything you find on the delivery receipt before the driver leaves. A signed clean receipt is the carrier's proof that the freight arrived undamaged, and a concealed-damage claim raised afterwards is a far harder argument than three words written on the paperwork. Residential delivery is available and carries a residential fee. Warehouse pickup is available at our stocking locations if you would rather collect it.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eWarranty, and one thing we cannot confirm for you\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis page publishes \u003cstrong\u003e1 year, parts only\u003c\/strong\u003e, and that is the term we sell it on. There is a second account in circulation: at least one other retailer of this machine publishes the same one year parts-only cover with an additional, shorter carve-out for wear items. We are not going to reconcile those two by choosing one, because we cannot verify the second against Atlas documentation we hold. It matters more here than on most machines, because a tyre changer is a machine whose plastic inserts, jaw covers and shovel cover are \u003cem\u003edesigned\u003c\/em\u003e to wear out. \u003cstrong\u003eIf the wear-item position affects your decision, ask us in writing before ordering and we will get the current terms from Atlas.\u003c\/strong\u003e Whatever the answer, contact us before dismantling anything — a stripped machine is the usual reason a good claim is refused.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"divider\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn11.bigcommerce.com\/s-ew8kwapfc4\/images\/stencil\/original\/image-manager\/golden-bar.png?t=1681903157\" alt=\"\" width=\"1198\" height=\"8\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv id=\"kd-main-product-details-container\" class=\"kd-main-product-details-container\"\u003e \u003ch3 class=\"h3 accordion\"\u003eProduct Features\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"panel\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"kd-product-details-continer kd-flex-row\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"kd-prouduct-details-item\"\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eRim Clamp\/Swing Arm Tire Changer\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAir operated jaws \u0026amp; bead breaker (external air supply required - NOT INCLUDED)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eElectric turntable\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAdjustable jaws, three mounting positions\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMetal mount\/demount head w\/ metal roller or replaceable plastic inserts\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eColumn mounted inflator box w\/ gauge Included\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFilter\/Regulator\/Lubricator Included\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e20\" Tire Tool Included\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eLube Bucket with Brush Included\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSet of Large Plastic Jaw Covers Included\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePlastic Cover for Bead Breaker Shovel Included\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMultiple Replacement Plastic Inserts for M\/D Head Included\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBuilt in “Beadblaster”\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eReplacement Parts \u0026amp; Wear Items Always in Stock\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e1 Year Parts Only Warranty\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"divider\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn11.bigcommerce.com\/s-ew8kwapfc4\/images\/stencil\/original\/image-manager\/golden-bar.png?t=1681903157\" alt=\"\" width=\"1198\" height=\"8\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv id=\"kd-main-product-spec-container\" class=\"kd-main-product-spec-container\"\u003e \u003ch3 class=\"h3 accordion\"\u003eProduct Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"panel\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"kd-product-spec-continer kd-flex-row\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"kd-prouduct-spec-item\"\u003e \u003ctable border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\"\u003e \u003ctbody\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd align=\"left\" width=\"50%\"\u003eModel\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd align=\"right\" width=\"50%\"\u003eTC229\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd align=\"left\" width=\"50%\"\u003eRims\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd align=\"right\" width=\"50%\"\u003eSteel, Aluminum, Alloy\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd align=\"left\" width=\"50%\"\u003eExternal Locking Rim Dimensions (3 Positions)\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd align=\"right\" width=\"50%\"\u003e1. 9 3\/4\" - 21 5\/8\" 2. 10 3\/4\" - 22 1\/2\" 3. 11 5\/8\" - 23 1\/4\"\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd align=\"left\" width=\"50%\"\u003eInternal Locking Rim Dimensions (3 Positions)\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd align=\"right\" width=\"50%\"\u003e1. 11 5\/8\" - 23 1\/4\" 2. 12 5\/8\" - 24 1\/4\" 3. 13 1\/2\" - 25 1\/4\"\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd align=\"left\" width=\"50%\"\u003eMaximum Tire Diameter\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd align=\"right\" width=\"50%\"\u003e39\"\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd align=\"left\" width=\"50%\"\u003eMaximum Wheel Width (Bead Breaker)\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd align=\"right\" width=\"50%\"\u003e13\"\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd align=\"left\" width=\"50%\"\u003eTable Motor\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd align=\"right\" width=\"50%\"\u003e1 HP\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd align=\"left\" width=\"50%\"\u003eTurntable Rotating Torque\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd align=\"right\" width=\"50%\"\u003e885 ft\/lbs.\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd align=\"left\" width=\"50%\"\u003eBead Breaker\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd align=\"right\" width=\"50%\"\u003e5,500 LB.
