Import Tips
• Label as 'manual operation only' to distinguish from powered presses and confirm cold working classification
• Include material compatibility certification (e.g
• for steel/aluminum) to support end-use declarations
• Avoid bundling with dies exceeding value limit; import tooling separately under 8466
