Import Tips & Compliance

Provide engineering drawings showing the penetrating tines and towing hitch to confirm classification as an aerator, not a roller

Label with maximum weight capacity and recommended tractor horsepower to prevent issues with agricultural machinery declarations

Watch for reclassification if knives are removable; ensure documentation proves it's a complete aerator unit, not parts
