Ranger R76ATR Tilt-Back Tire Changer & Single Tower Assist
2 HP Motor (110 VAC 50-60 HZ) 10 – 30″ Capacity

When it comes to your tire repair business, Ranger’s R76ATR has everything you need for safer, faster tire changes, even when working with tricky aluminum wheels. Extraordinarily easy-to-use, adjustable RimGuard clamps extend as far as 10″ – 30″, and the tilt-back tower saves significant time when loading a new set of wheels—no more adjusting the duck head to match each wheel’s diameter. The assist tower helps change low-profile and run-flats (anything with a stiff sidewall), and it holds the bead in the drop-center, protecting the tire. A centering cone further assists with external clamping, and a specialized saucer/roller combo offers yet another line of defense against stubborn beads.

Our most specialized, versatile tire changer
Ergonomic controls are sensibly placed to minimize excessive reaching, walking or bending, resulting in more jobs per day and increased profits. Other time-saving features include a multi-profile traveling drop-center tool, top bead assist rollers, lower bead lifting disc and a nylon non-marring wheel restraint device. These important tire shop tools are designed to dramatically reduce effort, increase safety and help minimize operator fatigue. A large 30″ capacity turntable features adjustable, hardened-steel RimGuard wheel clamps. These provide an internal clamping capacity of 9″- 28″ and external clamping capacity of 10″- 30″.

Electric turntable
A high-torque electric turntable drive features increased speed and reversible direction for quicker tire removal and installation. Controlled speed gives low profile and run-flat beads time to relax and reduces the risk of tire damage.

Adjustable RimGuard wheel clamps
Durable, adjustable RimGuard wheel clamps are made from hardened steel and accommodate wheels from 9″ up to 30″ and feature internal and external multi‐teeth jaws with vertical mounting bolts that make replacement fast and simple.

Advanced clamp positioning
Versatile clamp positioning allows for improved control when clamping wheels. Position clamps exactly where you need them within the entire clamping range. No need for the clamps to cycle the full range.

Easier bead lubrication
A geometric tabletop makes bead lubrication easy. Operators are able to visibly inspect the lower bead during tire mounting and inflation.

Bead-breaker design
A completely new and proprietary bead-breaker design features bilateral pneumatic accelerators for lightning-fast bead-breaker speeds in both directions. A 100% stainless steel cylinder body means no more worrying about moisture contamination from corrosion. Other exclusive design features include a multi-axis, adjustable blade for multi-angle tire capacity, a large, dual-flange axle that eliminates blade flex and premature failure, and adjustable blade settings that help accommodate a larger variety of tire and wheel combinations.

Enhanced bead-breaker ​blade
Enhanced bead-breaker ​blade features rugged box frame construction that increases the mechanical strength, as well as service life and overall performance. A large rubber bump-stop assures smooth return to help reduce shock loading and minimize wear on the pneumatic cylinder, guides and associated moving parts.

Balanced flywheel
A balanced flywheel reduces vibrations during operation, as well as stress on the machine as a whole. In essence, well-balanced flywheels keep our tire changers running smoothly for years of zero or low-maintenance operation.

Simple foot-pedal control
Rather than heavy, clunky cast iron, we make our foot pedals from forged steel that is durable enough for daily use in fast-paced shops and tire centers. The snap action spring return offers extremely accurate and safe operation, while the foot-pedal control valves are complete with multi-link rod connections for non-binding plunger movement and precise bilateral control.

Right-side tower drop-center design
Right-side assist tower features a multi-profile traveling drop-center tool that holds stubborn sidewalls in the drop-center area of the wheel for swift, precise mounting. A single lower-bead lifting disc can be used to unseat stubborn lower beads or to elevate tires for tool placement. A power-drop top bead assist roller helps hold difficult top beads in place during removal and in installation of tough sidewall tires. These important tire shop tools dramatically reduce the effort required to change difficult, low-profile tires and help minimize operator fatigue. Upfront trigger control and articulating arm allow for variable tire and wheel configurations. A heavy-duty, tri-flange, cast-iron assist tower carriage features linear way bearings for maintenance-free operation.

Tilt-back tower design
Ranger uses a tilt-back tower design for this tire changer because a tilt-back tower offers more ground clearance, as well as easier removal and inflation of tires. If you’re using like sets of tires and wheels, a pneumatically locked tool head will remain in place on the tower return, allowing for more rapid setup on your next job.

Advanced drive belt system
The drive belt on the R76ATR tire changer is crafted with convex sidewalls that structurally carry and disperse stress (wear) throughout the unit’s structure. Oil, weather, age, etc. do not affect belt performance, because flex-bonded cords and flex-weave covers protect the system at all times.

Stainless steel and aluminum pneumatic cylinders
All pneumatic cylinders prevent the tire changer from overly vibrating, reducing friction and contributing to the long lifespan of the equipment. End-of-stroke cushions are included to extend the life of all seals, as well as the wear band and piston rods. And of course, the entire cylinder system on the tire changer is self-lubricating and low-maintenance throughout the course of ownership.

Multi-function mount and demount head
The equi-dimensional shape of the hardened steel mount/demount head lets you change functions without moving the tool head. The remarkably smooth surface gently glides tire beads during mounting/demounting and prevents expensive tire damage. Additionally, a nylon tool head comes standard. Protect your customers’ expensive alloy rims and wheels from marring or damage when mounting with our durable nylon tool head that comes as a standard accessory.

Spring-assisted tool shaft
In order to prevent wheel damage, Ranger’s mount/demount tool heads feature hardened-steel horizontal outrigger support arms, as well as a rigid 45 mm spring-assisted hexagonal vertical tool shaft. These standard features keep the tool head in the precise position you set it during service.

Guide bearings for all moving parts
Ranger takes special care of all moving parts in our tire changers. Linear guide bearings make it easy to adjust both vertical and horizontal wheel settings. The horizontal arm’s hardened lower roller guide assists in maintaining an even-tempo for the arm’s oscillating movements. Durable rubber bump-stops ensure a safe return during tilt-back operations and lessen shock loading. Wear is minimal on tower guides and other moving parts.

Foot-controlled tire inflator
Tire changers require two hands to operate, so we keep both of your hands free with our easy-to-use foot pedal tire inflator. A push-button air pressure dump valve is integrated into the unit, letting you release tire pressure as necessary.

TurboBlast bead seating
Ranger’s TurboBlast bead seating system efficiently shoots a burst of air between the tire and rim, thus seating beads quickly without doing damage to the tire structure. For a more controlled air discharge, the system features a nylon discharge barrel with a contoured tab that locks against the rim.

Motorcycle clamps (optional)
If your shop services motorcycles, or you’d like to expand your business, Ranger offers an optional series of turntable clamps specifically designed to cater to motorcycle wheels and tires.

Ranger LS45DS Sonar 3D Laser-Spot Wheel Balancer
Includes Flange Press Plate 208-240V

The Ranger LS45DS Sonar 3D Laser-Spot Wheel Balancer is the latest innovation in wheel balancing technology, designed to revolutionize the way automotive shops approach balancing jobs. From its advanced 3D Auto Data Entry for wheel parameter settings to its Laser-Spot™ technology for precise wheel weight placement, the LS45DS brings a level of speed, accuracy, and user-friendliness that makes it indispensable for high-volume and specialty shops alike. Handling wheels 12″ to 24″ in diameter, this isn’t just another wheel balancer – it’s a complete system engineered to maximize productivity, minimize mistakes, and enhance customer satisfaction.

Sonar & Laser Technology – No Guesswork, Just Precision

At the heart of the LS45DS lies its revolutionary sonar technology, a game-changing feature that automatically detects the wheel’s width. This level of accuracy drastically reduces the chances of improper placement of weights, leading to fewer customer returns. Not only does it save time and resources, but it also boosts customer trust and retention.

Ranger’s Laser-Spot Technology ensures weight placement is as simple as it is accurate. With laser-guided systems becoming standard in high-volume shops, the LS45DS takes it up a notch. Whether you’re working with stick-on or clip-on weights, the laser provides a clear, visual cue, leaving no room for second-guessing. Once the weights are placed, a balance check shows an almost always clean result, thanks to this precise guidance.

The LS45DS makes weight placement feel intuitive. For stick-on weights, the laser pinpoints the 6 o’clock position, simplifying the process to ensure that even novice technicians can achieve perfect results. When it’s time for clip-on weights, the system automatically shifts to detect the need for topside placement and positions the laser at 12 o’clock. This seamless transition between weight types, combined with the laser’s high accuracy, ensures fewer mistakes, cleaner balances, and an overall smoother operation.

Automatic Wheel Data Entry
Ranger’s revolutionary 3D Auto Data Entry technology means techs won’t have to deal with manual wheel measurements! In just seconds, this advanced balancer automatically detects wheel diameter, width, and offset using a built-in sonar system. Get pinpoint accuracy without the hassle. Just mount the wheel, select your mode, close the hood, and let the machine do the rest. Quick, easy, and precise – perfect for busy techs who demand efficiency without sacrificing performance.

Versatility to Suit the Job
The LS45DS is equipped with Dynamic, Static, HID (Hidden), and Aluminum Alloy (ALU) Balancing Modes, giving technicians the power to select the best option for the task at hand.

Dynamic Balancing
This advanced method analyzes each plane of the wheel separately to achieve a more refined balance. Dynamic balancing is ideal for steel wheels and modern setups, where you can’t afford inaccurate readings. By balancing both planes independently, the LS45DS ensures a superior result, providing a smooth ride and longer-lasting balance for the customer.

Static Balancing
Sometimes, traditional methods are required – often when dealing with motorcycle wheels or older models where adhesive weights can only be applied to the center plane. The LS45DS has static balancing covered, offering reliability for these specific applications. This older method may not offer the precision of dynamic balancing, but it’s still preferred when working with vintage wheels, especially those with limited placement options.

ALU Balancing
For aluminum alloy wheels, weight placement requires a different approach. The LS45DS features dedicated ALU modes, designed to make weight application effortless. These modes typically use adhesive weights, which are less visible and more aesthetically pleasing on high-end wheels. Whether working with standard aluminum rims or intricate custom designs, the LS45DS ensures every wheel is balanced perfectly, without compromising on appearance.

HID (Hidden) Balancing
This feature is designed specifically for wheels where aesthetic appeal is a priority – especially for high-end or custom vehicles, where visible weights can disrupt the clean, polished look of a wheel. HID balancing allows technicians to balance the wheel in such a way that the outer weights are hidden behind the spokes.

The ability to toggle between these balancing modes means that the LS45DS is more than just a one-size-fits-all machine. It’s adaptable, ensuring that no matter the job – whether it’s a vintage mag wheel or a high-performance alloy rim – the balancer is equipped to handle it with precision and care.

Perfecting the Balance
Even the best wheel balancers can encounter wheels with significant imbalances. When a wheel shows an imbalance of 30 grams (1 ounce) or more, the LS45DS’ Optimize Function comes into play. This optional feature allows technicians to reduce the imbalance before proceeding with a full balance. The result? A smoother, faster balancing process that improves accuracy while reducing the number of weights required to get the job done.

For shops that handle a high volume of work, this feature is a time-saver. Not only does it streamline operations by reducing the need for repeated balance attempts, but it also contributes to a cleaner final result.

Automatic Electromagnetic Braking System
The LS45DS features a dual-plane automatic electromagnetic braking system that further simplifies the balancing process. Technicians no longer need to rely on foot-activated brakes or pedals. The system automatically slows, stops, and holds the wheel in place, allowing for easy and secure weight placement on both the inner and outer faces of the wheel. This hands-free approach not only enhances safety but also improves workflow efficiency.

Quick and Precise Setup
In the fast-paced environment of an automotive shop, time is money. That’s why the LS45DS has been designed for quick and precise setup. The machine’s self-centering, non-marring Quick-Nut and bell adapter ensure that wheels are centered properly every time, minimizing the chance of experiencing setup errors. This feature not only saves time but also reduces the risk of costly mistakes, such as improper balancing or wheel damage, which can lead to comebacks.

A Revolution in Wheel Balancing
The Ranger LS45DS Sonar Wheel Balancer is a major leap in wheel balancing technology. With its combination of sonar and laser technology, multiple balancing modes, and advanced digital sensors, it brings an unmatched level of precision and efficiency to every job. Whether you’re handling high-performance alloys or vintage wheels, this machine adapts to the task with ease, making it an essential addition to any shop.
