1. Define the working conditions
Record the application, material, working hours, ground conditions, ambient temperature and altitude. Discuss bucket size, reach and hydraulic attachment requirements with the supplier.
2. Compare like-for-like equipment
Ask for the engine model, operating weight, hydraulic components, bucket capacity, transport dimensions and included attachments. Compare the same configuration, not just the machine name.
3. Plan service and spare parts
Ask for maintenance intervals, consumables references, parts pricing and availability, manuals in a usable language and written warranty terms. Confirm who provides service at your location.
4. Confirm delivery scope
Provide the destination country and port. Confirm packing, transport dimensions, delivery terms, insurance scope and which costs are included. Ask your local import specialist to verify destination requirements for the exact machine.
5. Review evidence before payment
Request current photos, operating videos, the written specification and agreed inspection records. Check that the quotation identifies the seller, machine, payment terms and delivery scope.
