if I can find the bits in the garage I will make an assist arm for it, and see what difference that makes.... I only bought the machine because I was board on eBay
Well done for trying it yourself but for me for the small cost involved in getting tyres changed by a professional who will make sure the wheel is not scratched or damaged is worth it.
