Import Tips
• Label machine clearly as 'boring mill' and provide capacity specs (e.g
• max bore diameter) to distinguish from drills
• Ensure CE marking or equivalent for safety compliance; common pitfall is missing hydraulic system certifications
• For used machines, include refurbishment certificates to prevent undervaluation claims by customs
