maintenance? Can’t afford to purchase brand new?
LGSTX Services GSE Refurbishment is the solution for you.
LGSTX Services Refurbishment can solve your GSE issues in an effective and cost efficient manner.
Unit Evaluation
The process begins with the customers unit being put
through a rigorous operational check which is designed
to identify unit deficiencies. The conclusion of this
first step in the process will be a repair/refurbishment
overview that LGSTX Services will provide to our
customer for review and selection of refurbishment options.
Disassembly
During this process LGSTX Services mechanics will
remove, at minimum, all enclosures and guards as
well as the unit’s wheels, to ensure full visibility of the
unit core and to provide clear access for performing a
complete unit cleaning. The engine and transmission
will be removed at this point if the customer selected to
have them replaced or rebuilt.
Reassembly
In this phase of the process LGSTX Services will conduct
the complete reassemble based on the customer
selected refurbishment options to include items as
significant as a new engine or transmission, to as minor
as interior direction decals if selected by customer. All
component replacement is accomplished only using

proven rebuilt or OEM parts and components. As a final
step in the paint process LGSTX Services will apply all
customer selected exterior decals to the unit.
Quality Control and Detail Inspection
As a final phase to the refurbishment process a LGSTX
Service Quality Assurance Inspector will perform a
multi-step check on the completed unit to ensure
that all customer selected options and specifics have
been met. In addition, a final operational condition
inspection and overall appearance check of the unit
meets our stringent refurbishment guidelines. During
this final phase all components are checked and final
adjustments are made if required. Upon completion
of this phase, the LGSTX Services Quality Assurance
Inspector will produce and sign a Final Inspection
Check Sheet which will be provided to the customer
prior to final delivery of the unit.
