Leverless Tire Changing:

The APS 3000's Leverless Duckhead® bead lifting system eliminates the need to insert a traditional tire bar between the tire and wheel during bead lifting. The tool automatically offsets from the rim to help protect expensive alloy, custom, and specialty wheels while also reducing technician effort when working with difficult tire assemblies.

Smart Lock Center-Post Clamping:

Rather than gripping the outside of the wheel with traditional rim clamps, the APS 3000 uses Coats' patented Smart Lock center-post system to secure the wheel through its center bore. The system quickly locks the wheel into place while helping minimize contact with the rim, making it particularly well suited for expensive, custom, and delicate wheels.

Powered Roller-Disc Bead Loosening:

Individually operated powered roller discs provide precise control when loosening tire beads and can also assist technicians during mounting and demounting. The roller system can help demount the lower bead without a traditional tire tool, making difficult tire service more efficient while reducing technician effort.

Optional Wheel Lift:

The available Coats Wheel Lift helps technicians position heavy tire and wheel assemblies onto the APS 3000's clamping system. Adding the wheel lift can reduce manual lifting, improve technician ergonomics, and help minimize the risk of damage when handling large or expensive wheel assemblies.
