Ranger R980DP Tire Changer – Power, Precision, and Durability for High-Volume Shops
The Ranger R980DP tire changer is built for maximum efficiency, reliability, and precision, making it the perfect solution for high-volume tire shops, mobile service operations, and professional garages. Designed to handle everything from low-profile, run-flat, and high-performance tires to oversized truck wheels and off-road assemblies, this machine delivers the speed and control needed to get the job done right.
At the heart of the R980DP is its high-torque electric turntable drive, which offers increased speed and reversible direction for smoother, damage-free tire changes. The dual pneumatic assist arms provide extra control when mounting and demounting stubborn tires, while the multi-axis adjustable bead loosener blade ensures precision across a variety of tire and wheel combinations.

Ranger R980DP & R980DP-L – 220V Power or 110V Convenience
The R980DP 220V (5140174) and R980DP-L 110V (5140176) tire changers deliver power, precision, and durability for professional shops. The R980DP's 3HP motor ensures faster turntable speeds and effortless handling of trucks, mud tires, and 19.5" wheels, making it ideal for high-demand environments.
For shops without 220V access, the R980DP-L 110V (5140176) offers the same rugged reliability in a plug-and-play design, with a geared-down turntable for controlled, precise operation. Both models provide industry-leading performance to tackle even the toughest tire service jobs.
Unmatched Power and Performance
The R980DP provides higher torque and faster operation, making it ideal for tackling larger tires, 19.5” wheels, and high-load applications. The high-power bead loosening system features a large stainless-steel cylinder with bilateral pneumatic accelerators, delivering lightning-fast speed in both directions. Combined with the reinforced bead-breaker arm and box-frame construction, this machine ensures long-term durability and seamless operation, even in the most demanding shop environments.
The TurboBlast™ bead seating system provides a high-pressure air burst between the tire and rim, ensuring quick and secure bead seating every time. The hands-free foot-pedal tire inflator streamlines inflation, allowing technicians to focus on other tasks while the tire reaches the proper pressure with precision and efficiency.
Designed for Maximum Efficiency & Operator Comfort
Built with the technician in mind, the R980DP features an ergonomic, operator-friendly layout. The upfront controls are positioned for easy access, improving workflow and reducing fatigue. The spring-assisted hex tool shaft and hardened outrigger arm provide stability and accuracy, ensuring proper tool head positioning for damage-free operation. The geometric tabletop design improves bead lubrication and enhances visibility, allowing for better inspection during mounting and inflation.
For added versatility and protection, the R980DP includes RimGuard™ wheel clamps, which securely accommodate wheels from 9” to 30” without damaging delicate finishes. The hardened steel mount/demount head prevents bead damage with its micro-smooth surface, while the protective polymer mount/demount head and plastic protector kit eliminate metal-to-metal contact, safeguarding powder-coated, alloy, and high-end wheels.
Industrial-Grade Reliability & Longevity
Every component of the R980DP is designed for long-lasting performance in high-volume shops. The advanced brushless AC motor provides energy-efficient operation with minimal maintenance, while sealed electrical components protect against dust, moisture, and contaminants. The precision-engineered pneumatic control valves ensure smooth, consistent operation under heavy use, featuring an oversized ergonomic handle for comfortable, effortless control.
The maintenance-free gearbox incorporates a large oil and grease reservoir, ensuring efficient heat dissipation and long-term durability. Built from stainless steel and aluminum, the industrial-grade pneumatic cylinders minimize vibration and reduce wear, extending the machine’s service life. The durable drive belt with convex sidewalls ensures even wear distribution, while the balanced flywheel keeps the machine running smoothly and quietly, reducing vibration and stress on internal components.
