ABSTRACT:
A tire handling apparatus which includes a support member for receiving and supporting the tire in an upright position. The support member includes tire spreading claws adapted to be brought into engagement with an inside of opposed tire bead areas and draw the opposed bead areas away from each other to facilitate access to an interior of the tire, when the tire is located in a convenient working height upon elevation of the tire from a floor supporting the apparatus. The support member has a height dimension substantially smaller than the convenient working height and is also associated with an underlying floor supported lower apparatus part through a light system adapted to raise and lower the support member between a lower tire receiving position and an elevated working position.
