$450 on the Bay of E or the river store.
Delivered in about 48 hours, or was it 24, either way quick.
This is the entire owners manual, one folded page, just pictures.
There is a local to me dealer in Kalamazoo, they were out of stock, so off the the interwebs.
My long term plan for this it to add an electric motor for rotation but first I want to see how bad it really is out of the box.
I'm sorry, "pry the foetal bird's head?" Might be the greatest bad translation EVER.

It WILL be the title of my next album

Max tire size 22", max wheel dia. 39". It will be fine as long as you put large wheels on your small tires.
Only one mistake while assembling without instructions, because there are none. The large shovel arm has to free float on the air cylinder rod, if not the pull rod won't reach the big turntable. Pictured washer needs to be under the nut.
Other than that I will be trying it out tomorrow. Sprockets have been ordered and I'll pick up a foot switch this weekend.
It comes with a quick disconnect that takes an 8mm compression fitting on both sides. Cut that off and replace it with pushlock fitting and standard air fitting.
I had an old pneumatic tire machine decades ago ,
Great for pulling tires off of rims you were going take to the polisher , I always worried about damage to the outer lip .
I would love to see it working and if there is any lip damage.
One snow tire is mounted but needs to come back off so I can install the TPM. A bit of a learning curve, once I figured out where to apply pressure it went right on.
Rim locks would have helped a lot, they will be here today.
Worst part about this setup is moving the push bar a few times to complete a full revolution, again rim clamps would help. Currently working on the power rotate.

No damage due to the plastic inserts in the duckhead.

Fixed it for you.
And my tire machine has plastic inserts, too. You can still gouge the hell out of your wife's wheel installing a new Bridgestone, ask me how I know!
How big a footprint is it? Is it light/not so clumsy enough to shove in a corner when not in use?
