Depending on the type of machine, we have created an individual inspection form that the technician goes through step by step and tests the machine. At auctions, however, the possibilities are somewhat limited. We carry out a so-called quick inspection.

Why should used heavy equipment be tested at an auction?
Ensure safety: Identify any potential safety hazards that could pose a risk to operators.
Assess condition: Determine the actual condition of the equipment, including wear and tear, hidden damage, and overall functionality.
Avoid costly repairs: Identify major issues before purchasing to avoid unexpected repair costs later on.
Make informed decisions: Gain a comprehensive understanding of the value and performance of the equipment to make an informed purchase decision.
Verify the seller’s claims: Verify the seller’s description and claims about the condition and capabilities of the equipment.
Increase investment value: Protect your investment by ensuring that the equipment is in good condition and suitable for your needs.
Negotiate better: Use the inspection report as leverage to negotiate a better price if problems are found.
Regulatory compliance: Ensure that the equipment complies with local regulations and safety standards.
