Import Tips
• Document generator model compatibility and weight specs; heavy flywheels may trigger separate transport regulations
• Obtain certificates of origin to benefit from free trade agreements covering machinery parts
• Avoid common pitfall of classifying as 'generator parts' under 8503—focus on transmission function
