This is how you change a tire on an off-road dump truck

The heavy tire needs a strong hydraulic arm to lift it off the rim.

In case you've ever wondered how tire work is done on a big quarry truck, wonder no more. This video shows a tire being changed on a Komatsu off-road dump truck, and while it's not exactly done in pit stop speed, it's certainly swift considering the immense size of the parts in question..

Some of the work is carried over with an enormous hydraulic arm, but you still need a guy with a hammer to take care of the more precise procedures. We especially like the Euro techno soundtrack that makes the work look like a music video.
