Import Tips

• Document feed rates and cutter specifications to demonstrate it's a cutting-based profiler, not a sander

• Ensure labeling specifies 'for wood only' to prevent reclassification under multi-material headings

• Prepare for customs scrutiny on CNC capabilities—provide software verification it's optimized for wood profiles
