Parts and accessories suitable for use solely or principally with kidney dialysis machines are classifiable with the medical apparatus under heading 9018, because Chapter Note 2(b) to Chapter 90 read with GIR 1 places such goods with the principal apparatus, while heading 9033 operates only as a residual entry.
