The MONTY 5800B clamps rims from 14\" to 58\" \u003cem\u003ewithout extensions\u003c\/em\u003e. One chuck, no adapter set to store, lose or fit in the middle of a job, and no operator standing there deciding whether a wheel is worth the fifteen minutes of setup.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eFor a shop that sees agricultural, earthmoving and commercial truck wheels in the same week, that single line is the whole argument. Everything else on the machine is built to support working at both ends of that range on the same day.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eOne chuck, both ends of the range\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eA clamping range that wide is a mechanical problem, not a marketing one. The jaws have to reach a small rim without colliding with each other, and open far enough for a rim more than four times that diameter while still gripping it securely. Machines that cannot do it ship with extension sets — parts that have to be found, fitted, torqued and removed, and which are the first thing to go missing in a busy tire bay.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eTwo design choices make the single-chuck approach work. First, the chuck lowers to 350 mm, which brings the clamping point down to where a small-diameter rim can be rolled up to it and located without lifting gear. Second, the jaws are long, which is what accommodates rims of high offset — a deep-dish or heavily offset truck rim needs the jaw to reach past the flange rather than grabbing at its edge. The machine also takes rim flanges of up to 40 mm thick, which is the specification that quietly excludes a lot of otherwise capable changers from heavy agricultural work.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eTwo hands, four functions\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe control console carries a switch that operates two functions simultaneously. On a machine of this size that is a productivity feature rather than a convenience one: a large tire being mounted needs the tool and the chuck moving in coordination, and doing it in one motion rather than two alternating ones is both faster and easier on the bead. Chuck speed is selectable between two preset speeds by switch — slow for locating and breaking, faster for the rest — and the mounting tool operates automatically with a preset tool carriage travel, so the tool returns to the same place every time instead of being eyeballed.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eBead breaking on this machine is done at high force, which is what a heavy commercial or agricultural tire that has been on the rim for years actually requires. The figure is stated in the feature list on this page; we have left it out of our own prose because the units it is quoted in are not the units most shops here work in, and we would rather you read the manufacturer's number than our conversion of it.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eWill It Fit?\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThis is a substantial machine and a single-tower assist design.

A truck tire changer is a machine that stores an enormous amount of energy in a mounted tire, and a number of shops operate under workplace safety rules that require specific listed equipment or a documented safe-operating procedure for tire work. If that is your situation, establish exactly what your rules require and ask us to confirm the position for this model in writing before you order rather than after it is installed.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eShipping and delivery\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eAll Hofmann machines come with free delivery, setup, and instruction, as stated in the Pick Up and Delivery section on this page.

Delivery is within the lower 48 states.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eWhat you owe is site readiness: a sound, level floor, the three-phase supply available, room to work around the machine, and clear access for the delivery vehicle. Discuss all of it with us before the delivery is booked.
