Description
The Katool KT-2002 is a bench-style tire changer for garages, farms, and mobile service work that only mount and demount tires occasionally — the jobs where a full powered machine is more equipment than the work justifies. It handles tires from 12" to 22" on wheels up to 39" overall diameter, covering everything from trailer and ATV wheels to most passenger car and light-truck sizes.
The frame is Q235 and Q245 steel at 132 lbs — heavy enough to stay planted while you work a stubborn bead, light enough to move where the job is. The duck-head mount/demount design uses an angle and material chosen so the tire is not damaged during changes, and the threaded spindle with a quick-release locking collar holds the wheel firmly on the turntable while you work the bar.
Changing a tire or two a month, this machine pays for itself against two shop visits. Running daily volume in a shop, look instead at the powered Katool KT-T830 tire changer and KT-B760 wheel balancer combo — this bench unit is built for occasional work, not production throughput.

This item ships by LTL freight carrier. Free shipping to the 48 contiguous U.S. states and DC. No shipping charge is added at checkout.
Shipping
Coverage and fulfillment
We ship to the 48 contiguous United States and Washington, DC. Products ship from manufacturing partners and fulfillment centers across the United States. Shipping method and cost depend on the product, selected delivery option, and destination.
Processing and delivery estimates
For standard in-stock parcel and freight orders, processing normally takes 2–5 business days, followed by an estimated 5–10 business days in transit. Typical total delivery is approximately 7–15 business days. Business days are Monday–Friday, excluding U.S. federal holidays. Orders placed outside business hours begin processing the next business day.
Any known longer product lead time is disclosed before purchase. Dates are estimates. If we cannot meet the stated shipment timeframe, we will notify you and explain your delay-consent and cancellation/refund options under our Shipping Policy.
Shipping charges
Where the selected shipping option expressly includes delivery, no additional shipping charge is added at checkout. Other products use disclosed flat, destination-zone, or calculated shipping rates. The applicable charge is shown before payment. Orders requiring a freight quote must have that quote accepted before purchase. Mixed orders may include more than one shipping charge.
Parcel delivery
Smaller products may ship by parcel carrier. Tracking is provided when available after shipment. Separate packages may arrive on different days. Parcel shipping does not include installation or assembly.
Freight delivery and unloading
Heavy, crated, or palletized equipment may ship by LTL or another freight carrier. Delivery is to a safe, truck-accessible curbside or receiving point. Inside placement, installation, unpacking, and assembly are not included unless expressly stated.
Where suitable liftgate service is included for the product, the carrier lowers the shipment to ground level. Products too large or heavy for liftgate service require customer-provided unloading equipment, such as a suitably rated forklift or compatible loading dock. The applicable requirement must be identified for the product before purchase. A pallet jack alone cannot lower freight from a truck.
We do not charge separate residential, commercial-address, or eligible liftgate service fees. Reasonable documented costs caused by a missed agreed appointment, inaccurate delivery information, or failure to provide previously disclosed unloading arrangements may apply under the Shipping Policy. Seller or carrier errors are not customer-caused delivery failures.
Warehouse pickup
Where offered, pickup depends on stock at the selected partner facility and requires a confirmed appointment and our Pickup Authorization Pass. An order confirmation is not pickup authorization. Pickup does not include delivery to your address.
Read the full Shipping Policy or contact support@forgelinesupplyco.com with questions.
Returns & Warranty
Standard Products
These generally include smaller parcel-shipped tools and accessories that do not require permanent installation. Eligible return requests must be submitted within 30 calendar days of delivery, or collection for warehouse pickup. Prior written RMA approval is required. Voluntary returns must meet our unused, uninstalled, complete, and original-packaging requirements.
Large / Freight Equipment
These include oversized, palletized, crated, freight-shipped, or installed equipment, such as vehicle lifts, tire changers, wheel balancers, and large cabinet systems. Returns for buyer’s remorse, incorrect selection, or site incompatibility are generally not accepted unless expressly approved in writing. Submit a voluntary-return request within 30 calendar days of delivery or pickup; requesting approval does not guarantee acceptance. The product’s applicable category and any additional restrictions must be disclosed before purchase.
Costs for approved non-defective returns
Approved voluntary returns are subject to a 28% restocking fee, customer-paid return shipping, and applicable documented outbound shipping deductions, including where the original delivery was included in the price. Freight return costs can be substantial. We provide an itemized estimate before you commit to an authorized return.
The restocking calculation excludes tax and separately charged shipping. If included outbound freight is deducted separately, it is first removed from the restocking calculation base. The same transport cost is not deducted twice. See the full policy for calculation details and condition-related deductions.
Wrong items, damage, and defects
Voluntary-return restrictions do not automatically exclude verified fulfillment errors, transit damage, or qualifying defect claims. For approved returns of wrong items or goods confirmed damaged in transit, we arrange and cover required return transportation, with no restocking fee. Defect remedies and transport costs follow the applicable warranty and law.
Authorization and refunds
Contact us before returning merchandise. Use only the return destination in your RMA; do not send goods to our mailing address unless that address is expressly authorized.
We normally inspect and notify you of our decision within 2–4 business days after receipt at the approved facility. Approved refunds are generally submitted to the original payment method within 5–10 business days after approval—normally 7–14 business days altogether, assuming approval follows inspection. Bank posting takes additional time. If further review is needed, we explain why and provide an expected decision date. Faster mandatory deadlines take precedence.
Manufacturer warranty
Warranty coverage, where offered, is provided by the applicable manufacturer and varies by brand and model. Coverage duration, parts, labor, transport costs, and exclusions are described in the applicable warranty documentation. A warranty claim is separate from a voluntary return. Contact us for assistance before returning equipment or undertaking repairs that may affect coverage. Manufacturer terms do not remove our obligations as seller or rights that cannot legally be excluded.

Manufacturer warranty for this product
How long does delivery take?
Standard in-stock parcel and freight orders normally ship within 2–5 business days, followed by an estimated 5–10 business days in transit. Typical total delivery is approximately 7–15 business days. Known longer product lead times are disclosed before purchase. Dates are estimates; tracking is provided when available after shipment.
Is shipping included?
It depends on the product, destination, and selected delivery option. If the option expressly includes shipping, no additional shipping charge is added at checkout. Otherwise, applicable flat, zone-based, or calculated charges are shown before payment. Quote-required orders need an accepted quote before purchase. Pickup is separate from delivery.
Will the driver unload freight?
Where suitable liftgate service is included for the product, the carrier lowers the shipment to ground level. Other equipment requires your suitably rated forklift or compatible loading dock. Review the product’s unloading requirements before ordering. Inside placement and installation are not included unless expressly stated.
Is warehouse pickup available?
Only where offered for the selected product and partner location, subject to stock. You need a confirmed appointment and our Pickup Authorization Pass before traveling. An order confirmation alone does not authorize pickup.
Can I return my order?
Eligible Standard Product return requests must be submitted within 30 calendar days of delivery or pickup. Large / Freight Equipment is generally not returnable for buyer’s remorse unless expressly approved in writing. Approved non-defective returns are subject to a 28% restocking fee, customer-paid return shipping, and applicable documented outbound shipping deductions. Review the Returns & Warranty tab and Return & Refund Policy for eligibility and exceptions.
What if my order arrives damaged or contains the wrong item?
Inspect the shipment promptly. For freight, record visible damage or shortages on the delivery receipt before signing. Photograph the issue, keep packaging, and contact us within 48 hours of delivery for visible damage, or within 48 hours of discovery for concealed damage after prompt inspection. Report an incorrect item promptly.
A clean delivery receipt does not automatically invalidate a concealed-damage claim. If freight is severely damaged or clearly unusable, contact us before accepting when reasonably possible; refusal may be appropriate. For approved wrong-item or confirmed transit-damage returns, we arrange and cover required return transport. Rights that cannot legally be waived remain unaffected.
When will my refund be issued?
After an authorized return reaches the approved facility, inspection and the decision normally take 2–4 business days. Approved refunds are generally submitted within another 5–10 business days: normally 7–14 business days in total. Your bank may take additional time to post the credit. We explain any further review and provide an expected decision date. Different or shorter deadlines may apply to cancellations or refunds required by law.
Who provides warranty coverage?
The applicable manufacturer provides warranty coverage where offered. Terms vary by brand and model; review the relevant warranty documentation before purchase. Contact Forgeline support for help with a claim.
Can I cancel an order that has not shipped?
Contact us promptly so we can check its status. Voluntary cancellation eligibility depends on the disclosed terms and fulfillment stage. If we cannot meet the stated shipment timeframe, we will notify you and provide the delay-consent and cancellation/refund options in our Shipping Policy. Required cancellation refunds for unshipped merchandise are not subject to restocking or cancellation fees.
How do I contact support?

Freight Inspection
Minor or visible damage — inspect before signing, photograph any damage, and describe it specifically on the Bill of Lading (e.g. “Crate damaged on left side”).

Severe damage — if the shipment appears severely damaged, structurally compromised, or clearly unusable, contact Forgeline Supply Co. before accepting it. Refusal may be appropriate depending on the circumstances.
Documenting damage — failure to document visible damage on the Bill of Lading may affect or limit the ability to pursue a freight claim.

Katool KT 2002 Manual Tire Changer Machine FAQ
Can the mount bar kick back during use?
Yes, on any manual tire changer, the mount/demount bar holds spring tension while the bead releases, and it can kick hard if you are positioned over it. Keep both hands on the bar, stand to the side of its travel, never over it, and let the tension release gradually as the bead breaks free. Take a slow first tire to learn how the bar behaves before working at speed.
