A high-capacity center-post tire changer, the monty 8800 from Hofmann seamlessly integrates the high-productivity features of a tabletop model with the exceptional performance of a leverless tire changer. This sophisticated equipment includes an on-floor bead breaker, top-side bead seater, wheel lift, and camera for precise control over lower bead operations. Specializing in low-profile, ultra-high-performance (UHP), and run-flat tires (RFT), the monty 8800 demonstrates remarkable versatility with high-aspect ratio tires. The integrated wheel lift saves time by effectively mitigating wheel damage risk, technician fatigue, and potential injuries, while smartSpeed technology delivers an optimal motor torque/speed combination. The innovative mount/demount system, optimized bead breaker design, and pneumatic bead depressor significantly enhance productivity levels, and further boost efficiency.
