Tool specialist Sealey is now offering an innovative new wheel alignment tool designed to easily lift road wheels and locate them onto the vehicle hub. The tool relieves the strain of traditional wheel changing methods, which pose a high level of manual handling risk.
The patent-pending tool (AK7500) significantly reduces lifting effort and noticeably improves body posture. It is also a simple to use device which speeds up wheel fitting, while providing additional health and safety benefits.
Manufactured from high quality stainless steel, it can be used on alloy or steel wheels up to 35kg and is backed-up by Sealey’s Lifetime Guarantee. Supplied with four CNC machined stainless steel adaptor pegs, this tool is suitable for most cars, light goods vehicles, motor homes and caravans.
The technician simply selects the required mounting peg, inserts the lever through the uppermost hole in the wheel which engages with the mounting peg. As the lever is raised, the technician slides the wheel into position, keeping one hand on the wheel and withdraws the lever. Two of the wheel nuts are then fitted finger tight. The mounting peg can then be removed and then all wheel nuts fitted following the vehicle manufacturer’s guidelines.
