Remote-controlled mower buying checklist

Identify the exact model and configuration.

• Write down the model code and requested quantity, engine, cutting head, remote and optional attachments.
• Ask for the current specification sheet for that exact configuration. Compare mowing width with overall machine width and ask for net and packed dimensions.
• Request recent photos or a walkaround video of the same model and options you intend to buy.

Check documents against the model and market.

Some ranges are marked CE and EPA in the product catalogs, but a mark on a website does not establish that a particular configuration meets every requirement in your destination country. Ask for the certificate or declaration, test documents where relevant, the model identifiers they cover and the user manual. Confirm import requirements with your local specialist.

For a steep site, ask for operating guidance for that terrain and inspect any published gradient rating for the model. A catalog limit does not account for every surface or condition.

Make the quotation easy to compare.

• Ask for the unit price, options, spare parts, packing method, lead time, currency and quotation validity.
• Give your destination country and port, then ask what freight and delivery terms are included in the price.
• Confirm payment milestones, warranty scope and after-sales contact in writing before paying. These terms can vary by order and have not been published as a blanket promise on this site.

Use the shipping quotation guide to separate machine dimensions from crate dimensions and prepare questions for your forwarder.

Plan for the machine after it ships.

Check crate dimensions and packed weight, unloading equipment, fuel or battery handling instructions, blade and track spares, and the manual language needed by the operator. Ask how a damaged crate or missing part should be reported, and keep your order documents and inspection photos together.
