One needs more manual intervention?

AIUI, a semi-automatic machine simply assists the operator to remove/fit the tyre onto the wheel. With a fully automatic machine, you just put the wheel and tyre into/onto the machine, press 'Go' and the tyre is fitted/inflated without (much) further user intervention...

Easiest way to find out is to Google both types, and read the descriptions of the machines that comes up...

Been there, descriptions where very vague

I like it from experienced people - anything can be wrote on advertising pages, google isn't the only source of info I'm afraid.

On a semi the operator has to move the arm and on an automatic it does it for you, semi's are normally side arm where the arm swings in from the side and fully automatics are normally tilt back arms .
