# 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 <span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">**Level COMMAND**</span> 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

<p class="callout warning">**The 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 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 &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

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