Description:
The Atlas TC 289 wheel clamp tire changer is the perfect wheel clamp tire changer for most general automotive service departments and medium sized tire stores. This tire changer is perfect for changing the tires on large SUV and one ton trucks. The Atlas TC289 can be fitted with either the LH assist arm or the Atlas DAA arm assembly

The Atlas wheel clamp tire changers are designed to change the tires on both high priced alloy wheels and steel wheels without damaging the rim or the tire. The powerful ADUSTABLE bead breaker located on the side of the tire changer is designed to break even the most stubborn and rusted beads without damage to the rim. The turntable jaws (which can be covered with the standard protective plastic inserts) hold the rim securely without damaging the surface of the rim. These jaws can be moved to three different positions along the slides of the turntable to either increase or decrease the clamping range of the Atlas TC289 wheel clamp tire changer.

The Atlas TC 289 wheel clamp tire changer comes standard with the powerful bead blast system and inflator hose adapter and pressure gauge.

Bead Blaster:
The Atlas TC 289 wheel clamp tire changer is equipped with the revolutionary Atlas bead blast inflation system. The Bead Blaster design found on most of our Atlas tire changers provides an enormous amount of air pressure and volume (blasting air through the air holes positioned near the movable turntable jaws) to seat the beads on most stiff sidewall tires. This tremendous volume of air, directed to the inside cavity of the tire, forces both tire sidewalls to press solidly against the wheel so that the tire will "hold air".

Atlas wheel clamp tire changers offer this exclusive bead blast design on most of their tire changers. This innovative large volume Bead Blaster design allows the operator to seat the beads and easily inflate even the most stubborn of stiff sidewall tires.

The large column air tank reservoir holds more compressed air than most competitive tire changers. The vertical column air tank is connected to a unique valve system which utilizes an oversized hose system to deliver a huge amount of air pressure and volume in a short amount of time.

One pedal allows the operator to seat the bead and inflate the tire to the factory recommend pressure in a short amount of time.

The use of Atlas Motorcycle/ATV Flip Adaptersprevents the use of the air bead blast feature on this tire changer. The adapters are slid over the standard wheel clamp jaws on the tire changer table and will block the holes through which the bead blast shoots the jets of air. This means that you will not be able to use the Bead Blaster to help you reseat the bead of a tire when you are using either of these adapter sets.

Quality:
The Atlas TC 289 is manufactured in an ISO 9001 certified plant that produces tire changing equipment for export to many countries. The Atlas name means high quality and great prices. Greg Smith Equipment continues to offer the best products at the best prices.

When shopping for tire changers and wheel balancers; ask the competition to show you pictures and descriptions of what is "under the hood" of their machines. Tire Changers and wheel balancers may appear to be the same on the outside, but as in most instances: It's what's inside that counts!

Greg Smith Equipment has sold over 5,000 of the Atlas tire changers in the past several years. The Atlas name has always been a trusted name in the automotive service Industry and you can depend on the Atlas brand for many years to come.
