    MADISON, Ind. — Vehicle Service Group (VSG) is adding a line of Rotary-branded heavy-duty tire changers for trucks, bus and agricultural equipment to its growing portfolio of tire service equipment.

    The line comprises three models, including one that can be used in a mobile service vehicle.

    The three models are:

    • R501N Speed Changer HD — Able to dismount and mount a truck tire in 30 seconds, this compact model is designed to handle truck and bus tires, including wide-base singles up to 21 inches wide and 52 inches in diameter.

    • R560 Mobile HD — Designed for both roadside and workshop service, this model's hydraulic clamping and table top are suitable for agricultural tires. Maximum tire width is 37.4 inches and maximum diameter is 51 inches.

    • R511 Commercial HD — This model can accommodate a wide range of wheels, including truck, bus, super single, lock ring and agricultural, and offers variable speed operation via lever-type hydraulic distributors. Maximum tire width is 36.4 inches and maximum diameter is 64 inches.

    "Whether you're changing tires in the shop or on the road, on a bus, truck or tractor, Rotary has a heavy-duty tire changer that will help you get the job done quickly on nearly any size wheel," says Rob Dabrowski, VSG vice president of wheel service equipment.

    VSG's tire-handling equipment is produced in Italy at the facilities of its Ravaglioli S.p.A. subsidiary, which it acquired last year.

    VSG, part of Dover Corp., disclosed in January that it was launching a full line of Rotary-branded wheel service equipment, including tire changers, wheel balancers and alignment equipment to complement the brand's well-known lift products.
