Import Tips
• Provide usage logs showing over 1,000 hours operation to qualify as 'used'; new-like condition risks reclassification
• Ensure all guards and safety features are refurbished to current standards with photos in entry docs
• Avoid delays by pre-clearing with customs via binding ruling on rebuild extent
