Unpacking
Once you have found an appropriate location for the Tire Changer, you can move it into position, take
off the Cover, and then take it off the Pallet.
Use caution when taking the Tire Changer out of its shipping container
want to damage the unit, misplace any of the components that come with it, or hurt anyone.
⚠
WARNING
We recommend unpacking the Tire Changer near where you are going to set it up.
To unpack the Tire Changer:
1. At the bottom of the Cover, push the metal tabs all the way down, on all four sides.
You may have to apply some force to get all of the metal tabs free; they sometimes stick.
2. Lift the Cover off.
⚠
CAUTION
3. Remove the Accessory Box.
4. Remove the shipping bolts that hold the Tire Changer to the Pallet.
5. Move the Tire Changer off the Pallet, then move it to the desired location.
The Tire Changer can be moved off the Pallet using a Forklift under either side or by lifting it using
an appropriate lifting device (such as a Shop Crane) with a strap secured around the top of the
Main Tower.
6. Remove the plastic wrap around the Tire Changer and other components.
7. Untie the components that are tied together.
R980 Series of Tire Changers
Make sure to use an appropriate lifting device, such as a Forklift or Pallet Jack, to
move the Tire Changer while it is on its Pallet. Make sure only personnel who are
experienced with material handling procedures are allowed to move the Tire
Changer. The Tire Changer is heavy and the weight is not evenly distributed;
dropping or knocking over the unit may cause equipment damage or personal
injury. BendPak Ranger recommends having at least two people work together to
move the Tire Changer.
Ranger recommends having at least two people lift the Cover off; it is heavy and
awkward. If it is dropped or falls, it could cause injury or equipment damage.
Use care when moving the Tire Changer off the Pallet
