On most tire changers — including others in this same family — they are an optional line item you find out about after the first scratched alloy. Hofmann positions the 1575 as the value machine in the swing-arm range, and the way it makes that case is by putting the accessory that prevents the most expensive mistake in the box rather than on the order form.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eUnder that, it is a full-size swing-arm changer: 40\" outer tire diameter, inner clamping to 26\", a 6,000 lbs bead breaker, and a 120V single-phase supply that most shops already have at the wall.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eThe protectors are the point\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eCosmetic rim damage is not a small claim. A customer’s painted or polished alloy that comes back marked is a wheel refinish or a replacement, and it usually happens on the day a technician is moving quickly on a stiff bead. Including the wheel protectors means the protection is present on the first job, not ordered after the first incident — which is a genuinely different proposition from a machine where they are a line you can decline to save money.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eCheck the outer clamping range before you order\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe four-jaw chuck is self-centering and adjustable. Inner wheel clamping runs 12\"-26\" (30-66 cm), and the overall wheel clamping diameter is listed as 10\"-26\" (25-66 cm). Maximum outer tire diameter is 40\" (101.6 cm) and maximum wheel width is 13\" (33 cm).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished figures for outer clamping differ. The specification table on this page gives an outer wheel clamping diameter of 10\"-24\" (25-61 cm); the feature list says the chuck clamps from either 26\" inner or 24\" outer, and one bullet earlier that same feature list describes outer-wheel diameters of 21\" (530 mm). Outer clamping capacity is precisely the specification that decides whether a wheel you already own will go on this machine. \u003cstrong\u003eIf your work sits near that limit, ask us and we will get the current figure confirmed by the manufacturer before you order.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eThe bead breaker, and a second figure worth a phone call\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eBead loosening power is 6,000 lbs (2,722 kg), delivered by a two-stage pneumatic cylinder that is toggled from the foot pedal. Two-stage operation is what lets one machine handle a soft passenger sidewall and a stiff run-flat without the operator changing anything but the pressure on the pedal.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished figures for the working range of that shovel differ: the specification table gives 3\"-13\" (7.6-33 cm), while the feature list describes a range up to 14\" (356 mm). Both are printed here against the source that states them. \u003cstrong\u003eIf that range decides your purchase, call us and we will confirm the current figure with Hofmann before you order.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eHow the rest of it is built\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eDual pneumatic clamping cylinders control all four clamping jaws together, which is the arrangement that stops a jaw releasing mid-bead and dragging across a rim flange. The tire inflation system is a foot-pedal air blast, with each movable jaw set precisely under the wheel so the bead seats and seals.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe machine can be upgraded later with Hofmann’s optional Easymont Pro — a three-piece assist consisting of a top roller, pressing foot and lifting disc, each doing a distinct part of the job so a single operator can mount and demount low-profile and high-performance tires without help.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eWill it fit your bay?\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eTwo things drive the layout of a swing-arm changer. The arm swings clear to the side, so the machine needs a working envelope wider than its cabinet, and the tower needs clear height above it. Beyond that, the honest answer is that our data for the 1575 does not include cabinet dimensions — the specification table covers clamping, power and weight but stops short of a footprint. We are not going to estimate one. Ask us and we will get the installation drawing.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhat we can tell you is that it ships at 550 lbs (249.5 kg), and that power is 120V single phase, 60 Hz — a standard supply in most shops, and a real advantage over equipment that needs a dedicated higher-voltage circuit run before it can be switched on. It also needs shop compressed air; check that your compressor sustains a tire bay’s duty cycle rather than just reaching pressure eventually. Confirming power, air and access is the buyer’s responsibility.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003ctable\u003e \u003ctbody\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eOverall wheel clamping diameter\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003e10\"-26\" (25-66 cm)\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eInner wheel clamping diameter\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003e12\"-26\" (30-66 cm)\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eMax. outer tire diameter\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003e40\" (101.6 cm)\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eMax. wheel width\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003e13\" (33 cm)\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eBead loosening power\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003e6,000 lbs (2,722 kg)\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003ePower requirements\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003e120V, 1 ph, 60 Hz\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eShipping weight\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003e550 lbs (249.5 kg)\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eTower\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003eSwing arm, single tower assist\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eWheel protectors\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003eIncluded\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eEasymont Pro\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003eOptional upgrade\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003c\/tbody\u003e \u003c\/table\u003e \u003ch3\u003ePerfect For\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eIndependent shops watching the capital number\u003c\/strong\u003e but unwilling to buy a machine that marks wheels.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eGeneral repair garages\u003c\/strong\u003e that change tires regularly without being a dedicated tire business.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eShops on a standard 120V supply\u003c\/strong\u003e, where avoiding an electrical install is part of the value.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eOperations that expect to grow\u003c\/strong\u003e into low-profile and run-flat work and want the Easymont Pro route open.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch3\u003eWhat is in the box\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eHofmann’s own description is explicit that the wheel protectors are included.
