Some ask only for cleaning and a few agreed repairs. Others request:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>full repainting;<\/li>\n<li>undercarriage work;<\/li>\n<li>maintenance;<\/li>\n<li>breaker piping;<\/li>\n<li>quick couplers;<\/li>\n<li>additional buckets;<\/li>\n<li>rubber pads;<\/li>\n<li>other attachments.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Transport can also change the preparation scope.<\/p>\n<p>A large attachment may affect cargo dimensions. A large excavator may need dismantling. Some destinations may require more detailed cleaning or additional machine information.<\/p>\n<p>My rule is simple:<\/p>\n<p><strong><em><i>Export preparation is the agreed work needed to make one confirmed machine suitable for the buyer, the selected transport arrangement and the destination\u2014not an automatic full refurbishment.<\/i><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Before preparation begins, I normally ask customers to separate three things:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>what the machine actually needs;<\/li>\n<li>what the buyer wants to add or change;<\/li>\n<li>what transport or destination requirements make necessary.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>These are not always the same.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_89 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-1'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/dev10.webdesignexperts.online\/zh\/how-to-prepare-a-used-excavator-before-export-shipping\/#Quick_Answer\" >Quick Answer<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-1'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/dev10.webdesignexperts.online\/zh\/how-to-prepare-a-used-excavator-before-export-shipping\/#Reading_Guide\" >Reading Guide<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-1'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/dev10.webdesignexperts.online\/zh\/how-to-prepare-a-used-excavator-before-export-shipping\/#1_Export_Preparation_Is_Not_Automatic_Refurbishment\" >1.
