Import Tips
• Include photos and diagrams showing reciprocating single-point cutting action vs. rotary cutting
• Declare as complete functional unit even if attachment-style to avoid parts classification
• Ensure packaging indicates retail/workshop use vs. industrial to prevent higher-duty headings
