# 1.5 | Important Safety Information

<p class="callout danger">**WARNING:**  
The **COMMAND** system can automatically control hydraulic movement without operator input.  
Ensure all personnel remain clear of the implement during operation.</p>

## General Safety Guidelines

##### Read and Understand Instructions

Operators must read this manual in full before using the system. Do not operate the system without a complete understanding of its controls and functions.

##### Authorized Personnel Only

Only trained and qualified individuals should operate, maintain, or service the **COMMAND** system.

##### Operator Responsibility

**COMMAND** is designed to assist with land levelling but does not replace operator supervision. The operator must remain alert and in control at all times.

## Operational Safety

##### Supervise All Automated Movements

The landforming implement may move automatically based on GNSS and IMU sensor inputs.

##### Maintain Safe Distance

Never stand or allow others to stand near the implement, blade, or hydraulic components while the system is engaged.

##### Manual Override

Ensure all operators are familiar with how to disengage or manually override the system in an emergency.

## System Activation Warnings

##### Automatic Movement Hazards

<p class="callout warning">The blade or land levelling implement may move without manual input during automatic operation. Clear the area of personnel before activating the system.</p>

##### Hydraulic Pressure Hazards

<p class="callout warning">This system operates using high-pressure hydraulic components. Do not inspect, service, or disconnect hydraulic lines while the system is active or pressurized. Use caution when working near hoses and actuators.</p>

## Sensor and Signal Dependency

##### GNSS Dependency

The system relies on accurate GNSS input. A degraded or lost signal may lead to incorrect implement height or tilt adjustments.

##### IMU Sensor Calibration

Incorrect sensor calibration may cause unintended implement movement.

## Terrain and Environmental Awareness

##### Survey Field Conditions

**COMMAND** cannot detect soft ground, underground obstacles, ditches, or debris. Make sure to manually inspect and clear the field before using the system.

##### Slope Limits

Avoid operating the system on steep or uneven terrain beyond rated slope specifications. Excessive tilt may cause machine tipping or unsafe implement engagement.

## Maintenance Safety

##### Pre-Start Inspection

Before each operation, inspect all components, including hydraulic lines, sensor mounts, and electrical connections.

##### Lockout/Tagout for Servicing

Fully power down the tractor and disable the land levelling system before performing any maintenance.

## Emergency Protocols

##### Emergency Stop

Ensure the operator is aware of the tractor emergency stop mechanism location and function. Test according to machine or implement manufacturer's conditions and recommendations.

##### Error Handling

If the system displays a fault code, sensor error, or warning alert, cease operation immediately and refer to Section 9: Troubleshooting.

## Bystander &amp; Site Safety

##### No Passengers

Never allow anyone to ride on the implement or tractor while the system is operating.

##### Establish Exclusion Zone

Mark the working area clearly. Unauthorized personnel should remain clear of the worksite during automated operations.

## Safety Labelling and Hazard Indicators

Ensure all safety labels on the implement and control interface are clean, visible, and intact. Replace damaged or unreadable labels immediately.

## Before Proceeding

Before installing or operating the **COMMAND** system:

\- Read and understand all safety information in this section  
\- Ensure all operators are familiar with machine safety and system disengagement procedures  
\- Contact T3RRA if any information within this manual is unclear
