truck delivered it to the company estate, so I borrowed a trailer, 1 hour later I backed it down the ramp to the shed with no trouble...

Did that come with sun glasses? That is a nice tire machine. What is the four piper in the corner?

Indeed UP, indeed... ;)
Apart of torque wrenches, bike lift and a brake bleeder one of the most essential appliances in the shed... :cool:
I was eyeballing those since 2~3 years now... always € 1500,- and upward, till an FB add for this more decent priced kit popped up... :biggrin:

It's construction and concept appears pretty identical with the machine @GreenZR got in his shed, likely build in the same plant...
Studied the manual (they even carry spares for the machine) for serviceable items (lubrication, torque...), will check the belt size (table drive) to have a spare in stock...

This also broadens my rider assistant abilities though... :tire1:

Did an inspection today (don't want the rig fail on me right during a job...)

fixed a leak between water-separator and oiler by replacing the plastic(?!) seal with an O-ring...
(and found the oiler been already filled in the factory... :thumb:)
