The Ranger RX3040 features the latest in
touchless wheel-service technology and
provides your shop with the most advanced
tire changing capabilities on the planet.
Put those tire irons and levers away because
you don't need them. The RX3040 is a
hydraulic powered workhorse designed to work
on all wheels without damaging the rim and
without the use of clumsy toolbars, bead
locks or tire levers.
Why risk the chance of damaging expensive wheels when you can go
touchless? With the Ranger RX3040, tire
irons and levers become a thing of the past.
The unique reversible tool head effortlessly
mounts and dismounts the most stubborn tires
with no wheel contact. Ergonomic joystick
control combined with a precision hydraulic
actuator allows you to inch the bead hook or
lifting tip into position for gentle
handling of delicate alloy wheels. Take your
pick; a durable Nylon tool head or hardened
steel with replaceable nylon inserts. Both
come standard giving you the option to
choose just the right tool to make those
delicate services as simple as can be.
The Ranger RX3040 is a durable day-to-day
performer with the flexibility to service a
wide variety of wheels with ease; including
OEM configurations and exotic performance
wheels. The full-menu of time saving
features includes automatically operated
bead breaker rollers with controlled
penetration and loads of power, a
power-assist traveling drop-center arm, and
a power-drop assist roller that allows you
to change even difficult run-flats and
low-profiles with minimal effort and maximum
efficiency. So whether you're dealing with
standard steel wheels or expensive custom
alloys, you can tackle them with confidence.
No More Heavy Lifting
An integrated wheel lift with easy-guide
rollers helps facilitate the handling of
heavy wheels and virtually eliminates
operator injury.
Powerful Assistant Tools
A powerful pneumatic drop-center tool
dramatically reduces the effort required to
change tough-sidewall tires. Workers can
concentrate on working safer and more
efficiently. This must-have feature holds
tire sidewalls in the drop-center area of
the wheel then follows the bead around as
the tire mounts. The reversible drop-center
tool also doubles as a convenient tire hook
for lifting tires up and off the wheel
flange, reducing the effort required to
demount the lower bead. A power-drop top
bead assist roller helps position top beads
at an optimum position during both removal
and installation of tough sidewall tires.
Quick and Precise Set-Up
Tires are secured to the changer in the same
manner as a wheel balancer for user
familiarity and super-fast set up times. A
rubber base mount combined with multi-size
center cones and a patented no-mar
"Quick-Nut" makes mounting wheels fast and
easy while reducing the risk of wheel
damage.
Wide Service Range
The Ranger RX3040 provides an expanded
service range of 10" – 30" to 22" wide,
giving you the ability to work efficiently
on a variety of wheel styles and sizes.
Powerful Bead Breaker
Automatically operated bead breaker rollers
feature controlled penetration to easily
loosen even the most stubborn and awkward
beads.
RimGuard™ Technology
Ranger RimGuard™ Technology means expensive
wheels are handled with greater care,
resulting in less damage and increased work
efficiency. A single automatically operated
tool head mounts and demounts tires without
touching the wheel or requiring levers of
any kind. The RX3040 comes standard with a
durable Nylon tool head or a hardened steel
tool head with Nylon inserts.
Target-Lock Precision
Our exclusive Target-Lock™ button located on
the joystick control provides automatic
locating of both the tool head pulling tip
and the mounting tip to an exact fixed point
1/8" away from the wheel edge. This
non-touch feature ensures that no contact is
made with the wheel during mounting and
dismounting procedures. Precise
position-sensing data from the robotic upper
bead roller generates the exact coordinates
for the Target-Lock™ tool head, making
underside tool positioning as easy as
pushing a button.
Easy View Camera and LCD Monitor
The RX3040 features a built-in camera and a
large, full-color LCD monitor for a full
view of underside operations.
Maximum Power at Every Step
The RX3040 has conveniently-placed foot
pedals to give operators precise control at
all times. The powerful turntable works
systematically at a controlled speed for
easy tire removal and installation. The
smooth, effortless, power delivery of the
3-HP motor and 3000 PSI hydraulic power unit
provides multi-speed install performance,
even on tires with stubborn beads.
Reversible direction offers operators the
ability to back up in the event of turntable
stall during stubborn bead installation.
Powerful Bead Seating & Inflation
A handheld turbo-blast nozzle allows
technicians to direct a powerful burst of
compressed air precisely where needed to
seat even the toughest stubborn beads in
seconds. A simple slide valve requires
two-hand operation to protect operators from
accidental discharge. Integrated tire
inflation system features air-surge pulse
inflation for faster inflation speed and
improved bead seating. A large, easy-to-read
pressure gauge with built-in pressure
limiter and air dump valve simplifies tire
inflation.
European Technology Combined with
Italian-Made Hydraulics
The RX3040 gets its muscle from an
Italian-made rear-mounted hydraulic power
unit that puts out an impressive 3000 PSI.
This high pressure hydraulic power is
harnessed specifically to control the wheel
mount pedestal movement, bead rollers and
tool head operations. 3000 PSI translates to
over 10,000 pounds of combined bead breaker
force and massive power at the tool head.
Having extra power where you need it means
stiff sidewall tires yield easily
simplifying all mounting and demounting
procedures. The external rear mount design
provides easy access for service, while
providing protection for the motor,
manifolds and pump components. The
five-station hydraulic manifold
revolutionizes the RX3040 hydraulic control
circuitry. Rather than using multiple
external manifolds and independent valve
assemblies, the five-station hydraulic
manifold features Italian-made hydraulic
solenoids with only two moving components,
eliminating all concerns related to on-site
adjustment, oil leaks or hydraulic component
failure.
Precision Control Valves
The RX3040 features high-precision foot
pedal control valves that will withstand
high-use in large volume tire shops.
Aluminum-alloy valve bodies with durable,
corrosion resistant stainless steel spools
are combined with a high precision finish
for maximum seal life.
Extra Wheel Protection
As added precaution, Ranger provides you
with all the necessary tools to ensure wheel
damage is minimized during wheel service
operations. Our total-care package includes
replaceable nylon inserts for the steel tool
head, replaceable nylon remount and dismount
heads, rubber pedestal cover, spare
drop-center pull hook tool head and a no-mar
Quick-Nut.
Mounting Cone Package
When you purchase a performance changer, you
should receive a performance tool package.
We like to call our tooling package the
Total Performance Package with an added
bonus. Not only do we give you our standard
car and light truck cones, we include our
heavy-duty truck cone and spacer
ring, standard. Our Total
Performance Package includes three
automotive and light truck cones covering
hub sizes 2.00-2.75, 2.75-4.00 and 4.00-6.00
and one heavy-duty truck cone that fits hub
sizes 5.50 – 6.50.
Environmentally Responsible Power
Delivery
As the world's premier manufacturer of
automotive service products, we take
environmental concerns very seriously. We
engineer our products to work great and
offer tremendous value, but also design them
in a way that reduces energy consumption and
green-house gases. As part of our ongoing
"think-green" initiatives, the RX3040
features Auto-Shutdown Technology which
switches off key power system components
after 15 seconds of inactivity. This
proprietary power-saving technology shuts
off the pump and motor when the machine is
at idle, representing tremendous savings in
energy-use and minimizing wear and tear on
critical operating components. Auto-Shutdown
Technology also reduces background noise,
creating a more environmentally responsible
workplace.
