USED EQUIPMENT INSPECTION
Trust is built on engineering data, not just original paint. We use a unit-specific inspection checklist to document visible condition and available test results. Inspection scope and supporting evidence are confirmed for the exact machine before purchase.
Physical Review
Visual checks of accessible components, fluid condition, wear points, and available service evidence.
Diagnostic Review
Diagnostic records are reviewed when compatible equipment, access, and data are available.
Operational Demonstration
A walk-around or operational demonstration can be requested for the exact unit.
Unit-Specific Report
Ask for the available inspection material before agreeing commercial terms.
Typical Inspection Focus Areas
Engine & Power
- Blow-by analysis
- Turbocharger boost pressure

Undercarriage
- Link height measurement
- Drive sprocket tooth profile
- Idler alignment
- Carrier roller rotation
Engine Blow-by Verification
Hour-meter readings should be considered alongside visible wear, service history, and available diagnostic evidence. For compatible units, a crankcase or engine-condition test may be available as part of the unit-specific inspection.
Digital Diagnostic Proof
For compatible electronic machines, available diagnostic information can be reviewed before purchase. Data access, report type, and historical coverage vary by make, model, and the equipment available for that unit.
Inspection Technical FAQ
Can I request an independent third-party inspection?
You can request an independent inspection. Availability depends on the provider, yard access, the machine location, timing, and the agreed scope. Confirm these details in writing before relying on an inspection.
What does 'A1' mean?
A1 is an internal condition label, not a statement of remaining factory life. Request the evidence and inspection scope for the exact unit before purchase.
Can I request video evidence?
You can request current walk-around or operational video for a specific unit. Available footage and test scope are confirmed before an order is agreed.
Request Available Inspection Material
Don't buy on original paint alone. Ask what current photos, video, condition notes, and inspection material are available for the exact machine.
