Shipping Info
At Mechanic Superstore, our commitment is to provide you with the best customer service possible. For this reason, we offer you all kinds of delivery options so that you can choose the one that suits you best.
I Have The Equipment To Unload My Order
- Do you have a forklift, a high-capacity hoist, or a tractor in your facility? In that case, this option may be the one for you.Aspects to keep in mind when choosing this option.
- The most popular 2-post lifts (with 9,000 lb and 10,000 lb capacity) have a shipping weight of approximately 1,400 lbs and 1,900 lbs, respectively. On the other hand, a 15,000 lb capacity 2-post lift has a 2,700 lb shipping weight.
- Given the packaged lift and hydraulic power unit’s weight, they cannot be unloaded from the trailer by hand. Simply put, IT IS MANDATORY TO USE A SUITABLE FORKLIFT OR HOIST FOR UNLOADING THE LIFT.
- You are solely responsible for unloading your equipment from the truck. The truck driver cannot do this for you.
- Mechanic Superstore uses trustworthy freight companies to make the deliveries. It is your responsibility to be present on the scheduled date and time of the delivery.
- There will be a receiver charge of $135 if the truck driver arrives at the designated location and the customer does not have the necessary means ready to unload the lift.
- In case you do not have the necessary equipment to unload the equipment do not worry. Mechanics Superstore offers other delivery options.
Do you have a hitch trailer to transport your lift? If so, then this might be the best option.
Aspects to keep in mind when choosing this option.
1. Mechanics Superstore and our brands’ warehouses have the means to load your car lift into an appropriate trailer.
2. Given the weight and dimensions of car lifts, we cannot load lifts directly into vehicles or trucks. To safely transport your lift, you will need a hitch trailer. Will this option not work for you? Perhaps the warehouse is too far from your location? If so, keep reading.
Think of this option as a variation of the previous one. Even so, this could be an excellent alternative to picking up the lift at one of our warehouses. Instead, we can take the car lift to a warehouse closer to your location.
You will still need a hitch trailer to transport the lift for this option, but you can save on freight costs if you have an LTL Carrier close to your shop.
Neither of the above delivery options suits you? Then we have the solution.
We will dispatch your lifts directly to a local installer in your area. This way, you will not have to worry about anything since the installer would be in charge of the logistics.
Aspects to keep in mind when choosing this option.
1. You still have to pay the freight fee to the installer (or dock hold for the installer to pick up the lift)
2. We will quote th e installation fee before you pay for the lift so that you can get an idea of the total amount to pay (car lift + freight + installation).
Do you have another delivery option in mind? In that case, do not hesitate to contact us. At Mechanic Superstore, we are open to all kinds of solutions, as long as they comply with the relevant local regulations and safety standards.
Katool KT-T855 Vertical Tire Press Changer Wheel Changer Machine
Katool KT-T855 Vertical Tire Press Changer Wheel Changer Machine
The Katool KT-T855 vertical tire press changer is a specialized machine designed to combine tire mounting and demounting with precise vertical press control. It’s built for shops that deal with tough tires, stiff sidewalls, or wheels that standard changers struggle with. Its vertical press mechanism provides direct downward force to ease bead break and mount operations, giving technicians greater control and safety when working on a wide range of wheel types.
Under the hood, the KT-T855 tire press features a pressure shovel that can exert 2,500 kg (5,511 lbs) of downward force, ensuring reliable bead breaking even on stubborn tires. The machine is engineered for a maximum tire diameter of 1,100 mm (43.3 in) and a maximum tire width of 325 mm (12.8 in). It supports outer clamping ranges from 12 in to 24 in and inner support from 14 in to 28 in, accommodating a broad variety of wheel sizes. The KT-T855 operates at 110 V / 60 Hz with a motor rated at 1.5 kW, drawing a full-load current of 4.7 A. The noise level remains under 70 dB, which keeps the working environment more comfortable. The machine must also be paired with a gas source pressure of 0.8 to 1.0 MPa (116 to 145 psi) to activate the vertical press and pneumatic assist functions.
The body is constructed from robust steel plate, typically 3 mm thick, welded to provide rigidity and minimize vibration. The vertical press frame includes reinforced side walls and base plates, and the press arm or shovel is reinforced with quenching treatment on critical areas to prevent bending under load. The machine’s design ensures the downward force is centered, reducing stress on clamp arms and the tire during operation.
Operation of the KT-T855 is fairly intuitive. The technician places the wheel onto the clamping ring using either internal or external jaws, then lowers the press shovel onto the tire. With pneumatic and vertical press assistance locked in, the bead is broken with minimal exertion. Once the bead is open, the machine employs a rotating turntable to spin the wheel, using its clamping system to maintain secure grip while mounting or demounting. The vertical press helps during the first stages of mounting, supporting heavier tires and reducing risk of damage to rims.
