New Mid-Range GSP9600 Series Balancers Include High-End Features for Speed and Profitability

The GSP9600 LCD balancer (above) and the GSP9600 QuickMatch® balancer are also available with an integrated wheel lift and a full range of features and accessories to meet specific shop requirements.		The GSP9600 QuickMatch® balancer features a load roller system that makes true match-mounting capability available on a midrange balancer. This edition is shown with the Hammerhead™ TDC Weight Placement Laser, color printer and storage shelf.

Hunter’s new GSP9600 LCD and GSP9600 QuickMatch® mid-range wheel balancers borrow features from top-of-the-line Hunter balancers to provide both advanced capability and service value. GSP9600 series features include an LCD interface, advanced graphic software, patented SmartWeight® balancing technology and the ServoDrive™ programmable drive system. The GSP9600 QuickMatch® balancer adds a load roller system that measures the entire footprint of the tire for loaded runout and wheel and tire eccentricity. After spinning the wheel the balancer displays step-by-step match-mounting instructions to minimize or eliminate vibration.
