Import Tips
• Include hydraulic compatibility specs and pressure ratings in import docs to confirm machinery function
• Avoid common error of classifying under 8431 if chute is detachable—full assembly qualifies as attachment
• Require proof of snowblower-specific design (e.g
• impeller speed) to prevent reclassification as general grader
