We have a bead breaker that uses an impact wrench, similar to the Esco. You still have to start with a hammer to get it clamped on the rim. Most of the time the hammer is faster than getting out the bead breaker and impact. Good lube on the side of the tire helps a lot as well.

Before you put the tire back together, clean the bead surface of the tire and rim very well. If it has a tube clean the entire wheel from bead to bead. Then grease everything well. It will make it much easier to remove the next time and keep the tube from sticking to the wheel if it has one. Freylube is grease made for tires, but I use generic Crisco shortening.
