Hunter launches enhanced pro version of its Maverick tire changer

Éric Descarries 03 September 2025 Hits: 576

It didn’t take long for equipment manufacturer Hunter Engineering to improve its recent Maverick tire changer, which now becomes the Maverick Pro.

The Maverick Pro now features ergonomic and visual innovations designed to enhance both safety and efficiency. It stands out with a mechanism capable of lifting fully assembled wheel units weighing up to 175 pounds and placing them automatically, thus eliminating repetitive movements and reducing the risk of back injuries for technicians. In addition, the lower section of the platform is now illuminated, making it easier to apply lubricants and perform other tasks, especially in dimly lit work environments.
