Safety at a Glance

The AGRASTM T40/T20P aircraft is not a toy and is not suitable for children under the age of 18.

Note that the Safety at a Glance section only provides a quick overview of the safety tips. Make sure you read and understand this document and the Agras T40/T20P User Manual.

Pesticide Usage

• Avoid the use of powder pesticides as much as possible as they may reduce the service life of the spraying system.
• Pesticides are poisonous and pose serious risks to safety. Only use them in strict accordance with their specifications.
• Residue on the equipment caused by splashes or spills when pouring and mixing the pesticide can irritate your skin. Make sure to clean the equipment after mixing.
• Use clean water to mix the pesticide and filter the mixed liquid before pouring into the spray tank to avoid blocking the strainer. Clear any blockage before using the equipment.
• Make sure to stay in an upwind area when spraying pesticide to avoid bodily harm.
• Wear protective clothing to prevent direct body contact with the pesticide. Rinse your hands and skin after handling pesticides. Clean the aircraft and remote controller after applying the pesticide.
• Effective use of pesticides depends on pesticide density, spray rate, spray distance, aircraft speed, wind speed, wind direction, temperature, and humidity. Consider all factors when using pesticides, but DO NOT compromise the safety of people, animals, or the environment in doing so.
• DO NOT contaminate rivers and sources of drinking water.
• Disposal of surplus spray: Planning the spray operation helps to ensure only enough pesticide for the area to be treated is purchased and the amount of surplus spray solution is kept to a minimum. It is recommended that any surplus spray or washing liquid in the tank be applied to the crops. Users may also consider installing a pipeline to handle the disposal of the washing liquid in the tank.
• DO NOT use strong acids, strong bases, high-temperature liquids, or pesticides that are explicitly prohibited.

Environmental Considerations

• Fly at locations that are clear of buildings and other obstacles. DO NOT fly above or near large crowds.
• DO NOT fly over 4.5 km (14,763 ft) above sea level.
• Only fly in moderate weather conditions with temperatures between 0° and 45° C (32° and 113° F).
• Make sure that your operations do not violate any applicable laws or regulations, and that you have obtained all appropriate prior authorizations. Consult the relevant government agency or authority, or your lawyer before flight to ensure you comply with all relevant laws and regulations.
• DO NOT operate any part of the aircraft indoors.

Pre-Flight Checklist

• Make sure to check all of the following:
• Remote controller and aircraft batteries are fully charged.
• All parts are in good condition. Replace aged or broken parts before flight.
• Landing gear and spray tank are firmly in place.
• Propellers and frame arms are unfolded and arm locks are firmly tightened. Propellers are in good condition and firmly tightened. There is nothing obstructing the motors and propellers.
• The FPV camera and binocular vision system are clean and in good condition.
• Spraying system is not blocked and works properly.
• Compass is calibrated after being prompted to do so in the app.

Ingress Protection Rating Description

• When functioning normally, the aircraft is waterproof, dustproof, and corrosion-resistant. Under stable laboratory conditions, the aircraft (Intelligent Flight Battery excluded) has a protection rating of IPX6K (ISO 20653:2013) and can be cleaned using a small amount of water. However, this protection rating is not permanent and may reduce over time after long-term use due to aging and wear. The product warranty does not cover water damage.

The protection ratings of the aircraft mentioned above may decrease in the following scenarios:

• There is a collision and the seal structure is deformed.
• The seal structure of the shell is cracked or damaged.
• The waterproof covers are not properly secured.

Operation

• Stay away from the rotating propellers and motors.
• Make sure to fly within the specified max takeoff weight to avoid potential safety risks.
• The DJI Agras app will intelligently recommend the payload weight limit for the tank according to the current status and surroundings of the aircraft. DO NOT exceed the recommended payload weight limit when adding material to the tank. Otherwise, the flight safety may be affected.
• Maintain a visual line of sight (VLOS) of your aircraft at all times.
• DO NOT use the Combination Stick Command (CSC) or other methods to stop the motors when the aircraft is airborne unless in an emergency situation.
• DO NOT answer incoming calls during flight. DO NOT fly under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
• If there is a low battery warning, land the aircraft at a safe location.
• If the radar modules and binocular vision system are unable to work properly in the operating environment, the aircraft will be unable to avoid obstacles during Return to Home (RTH). All that can be adjusted is the flight speed and altitude, as long as the remote controller is still connected.
• After landing, stop the motors, power off the aircraft, and turn off the remote controller. Otherwise, the aircraft may enter Failsafe RTH automatically due to remote controller signal loss.
• Maintain full control of the aircraft at all times and do not rely on the DJI Agras app. The obstacle avoidance function is disabled in certain situations. Keep the aircraft within VLOS and pay close attention to its flight. Use your discretion to operate the aircraft and manually avoid obstacles in a timely manner. It is important to set an appropriate Failsafe and RTH altitude before each flight.

Maintenance and Upkeep

• DO NOT use aged, chipped, or broken propellers.
• To avoid damaging the landing gear, remove or empty the spray tank during transportation or when not in use.
• Recommended storage temperature (when the spray tank, flow meter, pumps, and hoses are empty): between -20° and 40° C (-4°and 104° F).
• Clean the aircraft immediately after spraying. Inspect the aircraft regularly. Refer to the Product Care section for more information about maintenance guidelines.

2. Avoid using wireless devices that use the same frequency bands as the remote controller.
3. When using with multiple aircraft, including T40, T20P, and other aircraft, make sure that the distance between each aircraft is more than 10 m to avoid interference.
4. The sensitivity of the radar module may be reduced when operating several aircraft within a short distance. Operate with caution.
5. Be alert when flying near areas with magnetic or radio interference. These include, but are not limited to, high voltage lines, large scale power transmission stations or mobile base stations, and broadcasting towers. Failing to do so may compromise the transmission quality of this product or cause transmission errors which may affect flight orientation and location accuracy. The aircraft may behave abnormally or go out of control in areas with too much interference.
6. If the RTK dongle is used for field planning, the module should be disconnected from the remote controller after planning is completed. Otherwise, it will affect the communication performance of the remote controller.

Operating the Aircraft Responsibly

Warning

1. Make sure you are not under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or anesthesia, or suffering from dizziness, fatigue, nausea, or any other conditions, whether physical or mental, that could impair your ability to operate the aircraft safely.
2. DO NOT stop the motors mid-flight unless in an emergency situation where doing so will reduce the risk of damage or injury.
3. Upon landing, power off the aircraft, and then power off the remote controller.
4. DO NOT drop, launch, fire, or otherwise project any dangerous payloads on or at any buildings, persons, or animals, or which could cause personal injury or property damage.

NOTICE

1. Make sure you have been sufficiently trained and have contingency plans for emergency situations or for when accidents occur.
2. Make sure you have a flight plan and DO NOT fly the aircraft recklessly.
3. DO NOT use this product for any illegal or inappropriate purpose such as spying, military operations, or unauthorized investigations.

5. DO NOT trespass onto private property of others.

Flight Modes, Operation Modes, Functions, and Warnings

Flight Modes

NOTICE
The aircraft will fly in N-mode (Normal) by default. The aircraft will revert to A-mode when the GNSS signal is weak or when the compass experiences interference. The flight speed in A-mode depends on its surroundings such as the wind speed. In A-mode, the aircraft cannot position itself and is easily affected by its surroundings, which may result in horizontal shifting. Use the remote controller to position the aircraft.

Maneuvering the aircraft in A-mode can be difficult. Avoid flying in confined spaces or in areas where the GNSS signal is weak. Otherwise, the aircraft will enter A-mode, leading to potential flight risks. Land the aircraft in a safe place as soon as possible.

Operation Modes

Warning
To avoid component malfunction, serious injury, and property damage, observe the following rules:

1. Make sure that you fully understand the aircraft’s behavior under each operation mode before use.
2. Stay clear of obstacles near the operation route. Maintain line of sight to the aircraft and observe its status at all times.
3. Only operate in Route or A-B Route Operation mode when receiving a strong GNSS signal.

Failsafe and Return to Home (RTH)

NOTICE

1. RTH will not work if there is a weak or no GNSS signal.
2. Tall buildings may adversely affect RTH. Therefore, it is important to set an appropriate failsafe altitude before each flight. Adjust the aircraft location, altitude, and speed while returning home to avoid obstacles when there is a strong remote controller signal.
3. Make sure to fly the aircraft within the transmission range of the remote controller.
4. Only use RTH in emergency cases, as they may be affected by the weather, the environment, or any nearby magnetic fields.
5. The aircraft decelerates and brakes and hovers if there is an obstacle within 20 m of the aircraft. The aircraft exits RTH and waits for further commands.
6. If RTH is triggered during Route operations, the aircraft can plan a flight path for RTH to circumvent the obstacles added when planning a field. Low Battery

NOTICE

1. A prompt appears in the DJI Agras app and the aircraft hovers in place when the spray tank is empty. In Route, A-B Route, and Manual Plus Operation modes, the aircraft can also be set to ascend or Return to Home instead of hovering. Refer to the user manual for more information on operation modes.

Compliance with Regulations & Flight Limits

Regulations

Warning
To avoid non-compliant behavior, serious injury, and property damage, observe the following rules:

1. DO NOT modify the aircraft or use the aircraft for purposes other than for agriculture.
2. DO NOT operate in the vicinity of manned aircraft, regardless of altitude. If necessary, land immediately.
3. DO NOT fly the aircraft in areas where the large events are being held, including but not limited to sporting events and concerts.
4. DO NOT fly the aircraft in areas prohibited by local laws.
5. Remain well clear of and DO NOT interfere with manned aircraft operations. Be aware of and avoid other aircraft and obstacles at all times.

Caution

To avoid non-compliant behavior, serious injury, and property damage, observe the following rules:

1. DO NOT fly the aircraft near or inside restricted zones specified by local laws and regulations. Restricted zones include, but are not limited to, airports, borders between two sovereign countries or regions, major cities, and areas where temporary events or activities are being held. Note that restricted zones are continuously updated.
2. DO NOT fly the aircraft above the authorized altitude.
3. Make sure to keep your aircraft within VLOS, and use an observer to assist if needed.
4. DO NOT use the aircraft to carry illegal or dangerous payloads.

NOTICE

1. Make sure you understand the nature of your flight operation (such as for recreation, for public use, or for commercial use) and have obtained corresponding approval and clearance from the related government agencies before flight. Consult with your local regulators for comprehensive definitions and specific requirements. Visit http://www. dji.com for the most current instructions and warnings and https://www. dji.com/flysafe for more information about flight safety and compliance. Note that remote controlled aircraft may be banned from conducting commercial activities in certain countries and regions.

2. DO NOT fly around sensitive infrastructure or property such as power stations, water treatment facilities, correctional facilities, heavily traveled roadways, government facilities, and military zones.

Flight Limits

NOTICE
DJI stresses safety during flight, and has therefore developed various aids to help users comply with local rules and regulations while flying. We strongly recommend that you update the firmware to the latest version to ensure the following features are fully updated:

GEO Zones

1. All GEO zones are listed on the DJI official website at https://www.dji.com/flysafe. GEO zones are divided into different categories and include, but are not limited to, locations such as airports, flying fields where manned aircraft operate at low altitudes, borders between two sovereign countries or regions, sensitive locations such as power plants, and areas where major events are being held.
2. Flight restrictions vary by zone. Depending on the restrictions in a particular zone, warnings may appear in the DJI Agras app, takeoff may be forbidden, the flight altitude may be limited, or the aircraft may take action automatically such as landing automatically.
3. Functions related to flying actions will be affected to some extent when the aircraft is near or inside a GEO zone. When near or inside a GEO zone, the aircraft may slow down, it may not be possible to create a flight task, or a flight task in progress may be interrupted. Note that the effects are not limited to the above only.

Altitude Limit

1. Fly no higher than 100 m (328 ft) above ground level and stay away from any surrounding obstacles.

Distance Limit

1. The maximum flight distance is 1 km (0.62 mi) by default. Note that the battery level may not be enough for the aircraft to return to the Home Point if the aircraft is too far away. Make sure to fly with caution.
