The John Bean 9800 Heavy Duty Wheel Balancing System is designed for shops that perform multiple heavy duty balancing jobs day in and day out.
“The new John Bean 9800 meets the heavy duty wheel balancing needs of today’s shops, while exceeding their expectations,” said Kyle Harris, product manager for John Bean. “Featuring an intuitive user interface, the John Bean 9800 is operator friendly and designed to balance truck, bus, RV and automobile wheel and tire assemblies quickly and easily.”
Capable of handling wheel ranges from 12" to heavy duty sized wheels as big as 24.5", plus super-single tires, the new John Bean 9800 has all the tooling included for cars through light trucks and heavy duty trucks.
Some of the other key features include:
- Pneumatic Wheel Lift – Aids in proper wheel mounting and reduces strains caused by lifting heavy tires.
- Semi-Automatic Data Entry – Simplifies setup and eliminates errors as it inputs diameter and distance utilizing the inner input arm.
- Self-Calibration By Operator – The operator can recalibrate the balancer in two steps ensuring accuracy.
“With its rugged digital display, the John Bean 9800 balancer stands up to the demands of heavy duty service use,” Harris said. “It is also extremely versatile and can even balance sensitive alloy wheels by hiding weights behind spokes. Shops will see dramatically improved productivity when they start using the John Bean 9800 wheel balancer.”
