THE GS TYRE CHANGER & BEISSBARTH TYRE CHANGER HAVE THE
SAME PINION GEAR INSIDE.

EASY TO DO !!! IT IS WHAT THEY CALL A “MOULDED GEAR”
IT IS A CHEAP BAND OF CAST IRON ROLLED ONTO A MAIN GEAR
DONE ON A PRODUCTION LINE.
ONCE LITTLE BITS BREAK OFF DUE TO EXCESS FORCE ON
THE GEARBOX THEY CONTINUE TO TEAR OF THE BAND.
