🔴 Check carefully

Suitable for WAVE101/FD260 but visible damage to motor housing raises refurb cost concerns.

Condition from photo

Motor housing cracked/split near fan intake; overall cleanliness acceptable; oil level and leaks not visible; mounting frame intact.

Likely refurb / add-ons

  • Motor housing repair or replacement (~€200–400)
  • Oil change and exhaust filter (~€110)
  • Soft-starter (optional, ~€280)

Watch out for

  • Motor housing cracked near fan intake — may indicate impact damage or internal s
  • Asking price €1,499 is below median (€2,948) but damage justifies caution
