Follow a MH3260 Through Our Process

MH3260 0008 In Wash Bay-1

The Wash Pit

Before any work begins, each machine goes through our wash pit.

A clean machine gives our technicians a clear view of every component, so nothing mechanical gets missed during evaluation.

Initial Inspection

With the unit clean, our technicians inspect it from top to bottom, both mechanically and cosmetically. Every defect they find goes on a check list of items that must be addressed before the machine leaves our shop. This intake inspection sets the plan for each machine. Anything outside the manufacturer’s specs is repaired or replaced, and the machine has to meet our rigorous internal standard mechanically before any cosmetic work begins.

The Paint Booth

We’ve spent years refining our cosmetic preparation process, and it shows. Our aim is to deliver a machine that feels as close to OEM-new as reasonably possible the day it lands in your yard. Yes, that means a darn nice coat of paint, but it goes well beyond that.

The engine compartment gets the same attention. We put it through a painstaking process of cleaning, detailing, and painting where it makes sense.

We want your guys (and your competitors) to look at the machine and think you just bought new. We’ve found operators treat a machine better when it starts out clean, and it’s a lot easier to hold them accountable when they aren’t inheriting someone else’s dings and scratches.

Another Round of Inspections

Once paint is finished, the unit goes through an outbound inspection. We run the exact same checklist used at intake to confirm that every mechanical and cosmetic issue has been addressed.

From there, the machine is inspected by a third party. This is the final quality control check in our process and the third inspection every machine must pass.
