Import Tips

Provide detailed technical specs confirming 360° rotation and hydraulic operation to support classification

Include noise emission test reports as required for EU/USEPA standards on heavy construction equipment

Avoid common pitfall of declaring as 'parts' - complete new units must use the finished machinery heading
