How to use a Coats Tire Machine, using my Coats 5030 classic rim clamp!

[@erikr1904]

Nice video...I work for coats the 5030 was from my early days at coats so I'm not familiar with it as I wasn't on that side of the plant but the balancer 1001 is legendary in the plant as it lasts for ever it uses a heavy duty motor that we use in our HD line such as the 6450 to balance semi tires...sadly we don't make the 1001 anymore because they never broke

These were the great tire changing machines of my childhood. So was the sound. Your friend, Jeff.

Great video! We just bought one for our homeshop.Can't wait to start playing with it. Thanks for the info.

Hey, when you are dismounting a tire put the valve stem directly under the duck for both beads that will ensure if there is a sensor it won't be harmed. When you remount put it at like 7 or 8 o'clock for both beads.

Very good tip!!!

[@djosbun]

This is a great video! I've started searching for one of these Coats machines and hopefully will find one (at a good price) soon!

Thank you for this video I just started at Walmart for my off season and this video helped a lot

[@garagemonkeysan]

Cool video. Interesting how those machines work. Thanks for sharing! : )

[@otonieldabeast]

Dude I just bought one of those. I paid $450 but Im so happy with it. I just need a balance machine now

[@eric77thomas24]

Good review sir my inflator hose is missing and I do know where to connect it

[@GusMahn]

Ever do any 35 or 40 series tires on that machine? Is it a lot harder? I've never seen a machine listed as cheaply as yours.

[@MrXilef74]

I have a question. I bought a coats tire machine but it's to slow, it is normal the sound like air leaking or not?

[@samv.2761]

What's the Max rim size it can hold?

[@kennethlawler7343]

What do I do if my turntable will not turn right or left do you have a video showing underneath the bottom of it as a machine

You can help the poor worker by letting them change your tire., sometimes sharing is the best.

[@1D10CRACY]

Not anymore, I change my own tires and I balance them myself! I also change my friend's and family's tires as well. Helping friends and family is the best!

Good video, Thank you!

What size air compressor do you need to run

[@1D10CRACY]

I have a 15 CFM on a 27 gallon tank. I'm not sure I would use anything smaller.

Thanks bro!

[@coltons4436]

Can you do motorcycle tires on this machine?

[@aaronwoloszyn988]

No.

[@coltons4436]

@@aaronwoloszyn988 yes you most definitely can I’ve done hundreds by now

[@jeffreyhickman3871]

I thought it had the old hydraulic sound of the 1970’s. Kind of disappointing there. Your friend, Jeff.

I have a friend who has a 3030, it works pretty well!

[@donsdrum]

Clamping that shallow rim on the inside is very Dangerous! You should always clamp down on the Bottom outer edge of the rim, not the inside.

[@1D10CRACY]

Good advice, especially for alloy rims. For full size (not shallow) steel rims like used in this video, I always clamp on the inside. But yes, if you are uncomfortable doing it that way, by all means clamp on the outside edge. What works for you is always going to be the best way. ;)

[@leesutterlin1757]

Nice job showing everyone the wrong way to use the rim clamp. You clamp from the external diameter not the internal, those little spikes are damaging every wheel you mount using the internal clamp, especially aluminum. I was looking for a video to educate an idiot who damaged all my wheels and here you are doing the same thing.

[@1D10CRACY]

Yay, a clueless keyboard warrior! It was a steel rim, there are no issues with clamping a steel rim form the inside. On an aluminum /alloy rim, you will want to bite it from the outside to prevent scratching. But thanks for trying!
