1.6 | Important Safety Information
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 Level COMMAND system.
Operator Responsibility
Level COMMAND is designed to assist with terrain-control and grading operations but does not replace operator supervision. The operator must remain alert and in control at all times.
Operational Safety
Supervise All Automated Movements
The implement may move automatically in response to terrain, sensor or control inputs.
Maintain Safe Distance
Never stand or allow others to stand near the implement, 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
The implement may move without manual input during automatic operation. Clear the area of personnel before activating the system.
Hydraulic Pressure Hazards
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.
Sensor and Signal Dependency
GNSS Dependency
The system relies on accurate GNSS input data. A degraded or lost signal can lead to incorrect implement height or tilt adjustments.
IMU Sensor Calibration
Degraded sensor data may cause unintended implement movement.
Terrain and Environmental Awareness
Inspect Field Conditions
The system cannot detect soft ground, underground obstacles, ditches, or debris. Manually inspect and clear the field before use.
Slope Limits
Avoid operating the system on steep or uneven terrain beyond rated slope specifications. Excessive tilt may cause 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 emergency stop mechanism location and function. Adhere to Tractor/Machinery emergency stop protocols and testing requirements.
Error Handling
If the system displays a fault code, sensor error, or warning alert, cease operation immediately and refer to the Troubleshooting section.
Bystander & 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
Ensure all safety labels on the implement and control interface are clean, visible, and intact. Replace damaged or unreadable labels immediately.
