1
Check the Documentation
We start by verifying that the equipment has all necessary documents, including insurance, a valid technical inspection, and registration papers. Once the documentation is confirmed, our mechanics conduct a thorough physical inspection. Any aesthetic or technical issues discovered are recorded in the inspection report.
We carefully review the equipment’s documentation, such as the manufacturer’s manual, safety data sheet, inspection history, and maintenance records, as these documents provide valuable information. They also alert us to any known issues, recalls, or warnings. We ensure we have the most recent and updated versions of these documents.

Perform a Visual Inspection
If the equipment exhibits only minor flaws (such as paint imperfections, corrosion, small dents, or surface scratches) that can be easily repaired, we will carry out the necessary repairs. We also record the operating hours displayed on the onboard computer and check to ensure these hours are accurate and unaltered.
We meticulously inspect the machinery’s bodywork under bright lighting to identify small imperfections. The mechanics closely examine the contours and gaps between components to ensure alignment with manufacturer standards. The engine hood, side panels, and all access points are thoroughly checked for signs of wear or misalignment. Key components, including the cabin, access panels, and doors, undergo rigorous assessment, which is crucial for maintaining the performance and safety of agricultural, construction, and industrial equipment.
Next, we evaluate additional engine components for wear and functionality, ensuring everything operates within required specifications. We inspect terminal power cables and conductors for any signs of damage.
Special attention is given to all external and internal components, such as wires, hoses, belts, gears, valves, and switches. We look for cracks, leaks, breaks, loose connections, or missing parts. We also check the condition of safety devices, including guards, shields, locks, sensors, and emergency stops. Any defects or anomalies observed will be addressed promptly.

Test the Functionality
At this stage, we verify the technical parameters of the machinery’s engine. We start the equipment to ensure that the engine operates at normal temperature, and that noise levels and exhaust emissions do not exceed EU regulations.
We check the lighting systems, including work lights, warning lights, and auxiliary lighting, by turning them on and off in sequence. The onboard computer is inspected for any error codes or malfunctions, and we verify that the climate control and heating systems are functioning properly to maintain a comfortable working environment. Finally, we assess the audio, communication, and navigation systems to ensure they are operational and meet the necessary standards for agricultural, construction, and industrial applications.
We utilize various methods and tools to measure the equipment’s performance, efficiency, and accuracy, including instruments, counters, indicators, and software. Simple tests are conducted, such as starting and stopping the machinery, adjusting settings, and running a test product. During this process, we observe for any unusual sounds, vibrations, or odors that may indicate problems.
During the performance assessment, the audio system is turned off to identify operational irregularities. Specialists focus on critical components, such as the transmission system, which is assessed using an approved diagnostic tool. We closely monitor the throttle controls and braking systems to ensure they operate within specified parameters. Additionally, the suspension and shock absorbers are examined for signs of noise or vibration.
At moderate speed, we check the machinery’s alignment to ensure it remains straight on the path without requiring steering adjustments. After completing the performance test, our inspectors examine the equipment for any signs of oil or fluid leakage a few minutes after it has stopped, ensuring operational integrity and safety in agricultural, construction, and industrial environments.

Clean and Lubricate
We will focus on cleaning and lubricating the equipment to remove any dirt, dust, or debris that could interfere with its operation or cause overheating. We utilize appropriate cleaning agents and tools, such as cloths, brushes, and compressed air, to effectively eliminate contaminants. Additionally, we apply suitable lubricants, including oil, grease, or wax, to moving parts such as bearings, joints, and slides, helping to reduce friction, noise, and wear.

Record and Report
All observations recorded during the inspection of agricultural, construction, and industrial equipment are meticulously analyzed by authorized mechanics. If the equipment is deemed to be in excellent condition, the inspection report is forwarded to the service manager for approval. Additionally, we communicate all recorded observations to the sales department to facilitate the listing of the equipment for sale on our platform.
The equipment originating from the available fleet of our partners has undergone a thorough inspection prior to being offered for sale, in order to assess its condition, aesthetics, mechanical performance, and registration documents. This inspection is performed by authorized mechanics and is supervised by the service manager who verifies that everything written in the inspection report is accurate and reflects the reality. We guarantee that the information presented in the equipment description on our platform is 100% accurate.
