HUNTER WINALIGN HEAVY DUTY WHEEL ALIGNER

The wheel aligner has received a major vote of confidence from Nolan’s Interstate Transport

Precision Automotive Equipment, which says it is Australia’s leading automotive workshop equipment suppliers, fitters and service providers, states that it prides itself on achieving outstanding customer satisfaction.

As the exclusive Australian distributor of the “world leading” Hunter range of wheel service equipment products, Precision Equipment recently supplied the busy Nolan’s Interstate Transport (QLD) workshop with a “state of the art” Hunter WinAlign Heavy Duty Wheel Aligner.

Designed specifically for heavy duty vehicles, Hunter’s WinAlign system includes unique alignment features to suit a comprehensive range of truck, trailer and bus applications.

According to Aaron Mogg, Workshop Manager of Nolan’s Interstate Transport, the Hunter WinAlign Wheel Aligner has been a total game changer for their business efficiency.

“Since the implementation of the Hunter WinAlign Wheel Aligner some 12 months ago we have significantly reduced our tyre costs per month,” Aaron said.

“We are currently running approximately 2,000 axles in the Nolan’s Transport fleet and we noticed a small saving after the first three months of using this aligner, but it was after the first year where the savings proved to be remarkable.

“Before we purchased the Hunter aligner, we averaged $135K per month in tyre costs (using an external aligner), now we are spending $85K per month.

“We currently only do wheel alignments when a full set of drives are replaced, when a set of steers are replaced, or if a driver complaint comes in.

“On that point, the compliments we are getting from our drivers to our mechanics are very rewarding. Anyone in this business will tell you that getting compliments from drivers is not easy!”
