Import Tips
• Include cut-list optimization demonstration videos or software specs in import docs to confirm classification as an optimizing saw
• Check for dual-use capabilities; pure wood saws stay in 8465, but metal-capable models may require different headings
• Prepare noise and dust emission compliance certificates as woodworking saws often face environmental import scrutiny
