Also searched as: FTC6700 / FTC 6700 / Fortisky truck tire changer / commercial tire changer
The Fortisky FTC-6700 is a fully automatic vertical tire changer for passenger cars, light trucks, buses, and heavy-duty commercial trucks. 4.0 HP hydraulic power handles 14" to 42" rims and tires up to 59" diameter and 3,307 lbs. Joystick controls run every function. The bi-directional mount/demount head works both ways for faster tire service.
Who It's For
Commercial Tire Shops
Built for high-volume truck tire service. The vertical design and joystick controls speed up workflow compared to horizontal changers. Handles everything from fleet pickups to Class 8 trucks.
Fleet Maintenance Operations
One machine for your entire fleet. The 14" to 42" rim range covers passenger vehicles, light trucks, buses, and heavy commercial equipment. Sealed gearbox and hydraulic system minimize downtime.
Multi-Service Shops
Includes passenger vehicle adapters so you can service sedans and semis on the same machine. Aluminum wheel clamps with rim protectors handle alloy wheels without damage.
Features
Vertical Design with Joystick Control
Vertical layout keeps heavy truck tires at working height. All functions run through a single joystick: chuck rotation, arm movement, bead pressing, tire lifting. Operate from any position around the machine.
Bi-Directional Mount/Demount Head
The hook tool works both directions. The adjustable bead pressing roller with scale positioning locks to rim size and stays put between mount and demount cycles. No repositioning needed.
Sealed Gearbox Design
Fully sealed gearbox keeps tire dust, dirt, and debris out of the gears. Extends gear life and reduces maintenance compared to open gearbox designs.
High-Flow Hydraulic System
Dual 1.5 kW motors (pump and gearbox) deliver 4.0 HP through enlarged oil lines. Higher flow, faster motor speed, quicker cycle times. Hydraulic gauge for real-time pressure monitoring.
Aluminum Wheel Protection
Self-centering chuck with specialized clamps and jaw protectors for aluminum and alloy wheels. Service light-alloy rims without scratches or gouges.
Built-In Safety Systems
Check valve on spindle hydraulic line prevents wheel drops. Pressure relief valve at 130 bar protects hydraulics. Motor overload cut-off prevents burnout. Check valve on chuck arm stops uncontrolled descent.
