Import Tips
• Provide detailed technical specs showing boring as primary function to avoid reclassification as a grinder
• Document value precisely with original manufacturer pricing; undervaluation leads to audits
• Check for EPA compliance if coolant systems are included, a frequent oversight in machine tool imports
