Import Tips

• Label with exact model compatibility (e.g

• 310SJ) and include backhoe OEM part numbers to substantiate classification

• Ensure castings meet ASTM A536 standards for ductile iron; provide foundry certificates to prevent undervaluation claims

• Avoid common pitfalls by declaring as 'machinery parts' not 'automotive,' with photos showing backhoe-specific features
