Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If output exceeds 735W
Higher power AC motors fall into different output power subheadings within 8501.40
If gearbox sold separately from motor
Gearboxes without integrated motors classify as transmission components, not gear motors
If DC powered instead of AC
DC motors with gears use universal commutator but classify under DC motor headings

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify motor output rating with manufacturer's test data to confirm 74.6-735W range for this subheading
• Include gearbox specifications in documentation; separate gears may classify under 8483
• Ensure CE/UL markings for compliance; declare exact power rating to avoid reclassification
