Warranty and rules on repair parts
If a supplier repairs or services your equipment, government guidelines on repair, service and maintenance require it to warrant any part it fits for at least three months, and the supplier must say how long. While the machine is under warranty, you are entitled to use original or matching-quality spare parts. Some specialist suppliers offer two years on parts or 2,000 hours on earthmoving repairs, which is a useful benchmark when you compare offers. Ask for the warranty period in writing.
Season and planning the order
Summer runs from December to February and winter from June to August. Plan cooling checks before the hot months from December to February, since radiators and coolant sensors are among the parts in these results. Order before a planned shutdown, not after a breakdown, and allow time for delivery to your site.
Part numbers and what to write in your request
Give the part number, the machine model and the serial number. A wrong part number leads to a wrong part, so check it against the old part or the machine plate before you order. State whether you want an original part or a compatible one, the engine type, the condition you accept, how urgent it is and your budget. Ask whether the price includes VAT and delivery to your city, such as Johannesburg, Pretoria, Durban, Cape Town or Gqeberha.
BlaBlaPrice is free for buyers. Describe the machine and the part in your own words in the chat, and add a photo of the part number if you have one.

Sellers registered on BlaBlaPrice reply in the chat with their own offer, terms and delivery, and your contacts stay hidden until you decide with whom to exchange them.
