A useful dealer workshop is built from authorised service tasks, not a universal tool-shopping list. Mechanical, electrical, battery, engine and cutting-system work carry different risks, and the required instruments depend on the exact MERI model and delivered manuals.
Direct recommendation
Start with the supported product range and task matrix. Mark work as dealer-authorised, specialist-only or factory-escalated, then obtain the specified tools, PPE, lifting/support equipment, measuring instruments, consumables, documents and training. Do not improvise ratings or procedures.

Planning framework
| Area | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Safe work | Isolation, fire controls, PPE, stable support and guarded test area |
| Mechanical | Specified hand tools, torque control, pullers or alignment aids where required |
| Electrical | Rated meter/test leads, wiring references and connector tools |
| Model-specific | Engine, battery/charger, track, cutter and controller requirements |
| Records | Serial/configuration, calibration, service actions, parts and test result |
Define authorised work first
List inspections, maintenance, wear-part replacement, mechanical repair, electrical diagnosis and software/control tasks. Assign competence and escalation for each.
Build a safe work area
Provide isolation, ventilation, fire response, spill control, stable lifting/support and an exclusion area for controlled functional checks.
Use model-specific instructions
Torque, fluid, tension, electrical and battery procedures come from the exact delivered documents. Similar machines do not justify copied settings.
Control measuring tools
Choose suitable range, accuracy and condition, and maintain calibration or verification records where results affect acceptance.
Protect parts identity
Label removed and replacement items with machine, serial/configuration and revision. Verify compatibility before installation.
Standardise escalation
Send symptom, conditions, labels, readings, images, checks and changes already made. Stop before bypassing safety features or making unsupported modifications.
Working records
- Exact product scope, target users/sites and responsible owners.
- Training, service, demonstration or procurement evidence.
- Open risks, decisions, deadlines and escalation contacts.
- Written commercial agreement or quotation for any binding terms.

Buyer FAQ
Does this guide promise dealer or contract terms?
No. Binding terms belong in the signed agreement, tender or dated quotation.
Can one configuration cover every site?
Only after each site segment and compatible option set have been verified.
How should progress be judged?
Use named evidence, objective gates and recorded decisions rather than activity totals alone.
Build a verifiable program
Send the market, site portfolio or procurement scope for review.
