The Brillion Zone Commander was designed
as a primary tillage tool imparting minimum
soil disturbance and soil eroison while provid-
ing excellent break-up of compacted soil,
lifting it up enough to promote air and water
absorption.
To obtain maximum benefits, please study
this manual carefully before operating or
starting assembly of machine or optional
equipment.
If items covered in this manual are not under-
stood, contact your local Brillion dealer.
This safety alert symbol
is used to call your
attention to instructions
concerning personal
safety. This symbol is found throughout this
manual and will be found on safety signs on
your machine. It points out important safety
precautions. It means “ATTENTION! BE ALERT!
YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED!” Read the
message that follows and be alert to the
possibility of personal injury or death.
SAFETY ALERT
Parts Ordering
When ordering parts for this machine, include
the complete model number and serial num-
ber. Refer to the name plate on the inside of
the frame’s right hand end plate. Please
record these numbers upon taking delivery of
the unit.
INTRODUCTION
Location Reference
Right hand, left hand and forward designa-
tions are those related to the operator when
sitting in the operating position.
Be sure to read the warranty form which is
shipped with the machine. Return the proper
portion of the form for recording at the factory.

1. Do not stand between the tractor and
implement when attaching or detaching
implement unless both are not moving.
2. Before applying pressure to the hydraulic
system, be sure all connections are tight
and that hydraulic lines and hoses are not
damaged.
3. Escaping fluid under pressure can be
nearly invisible and have enough force to
penetrate the skin causing serious injury.
Use a piece of cardboard, rather than
hands, to search for suspected leaks. If
injured by fluid, see a doctor at once.
4. Do not make adjustments or lubricate
machine while it is in motion.
5. Do not allow anyone to ride on tractor or
machine.
7. Do not transport at speeds over 15 mph.
8. Avoid sudden stops or turns when trans-
porting because the weight of machine
may cause operator to lose control of
tractor. Use a tractor heavier than the
machine.
9. Use caution when towing behind articu-
lated steering tractors; fast or sharp turns
may cause the machine to shift sideways.
10. When transporting the machine on a road
or highway, use adequate warning symbols,
reflectors, lights, and slow moving
vehicle signs as required.
11. Block machine so it will not roll when
unhitched from tractor.
12. Relieve pressure in hydraulic lines before
uncoupling hydraulic hoses from tractor.
On most tractors this can be done by
operating valves after engine is stopped.
13. Securely block machine when working on
or under it to prevent injury in case of
hydraulic failure or inadvertent lowering
by another person.
14. Lower machine to ground when not in use.
15. Springs of shank assemblies are under
load Do not remove bolts as improper
removal of spring assembly bolts could
result in serious injury.
Federal law requires that you explain the safety and operating instructions
furnished with this machine to all employees before they are allowed to
operate the machine. These must be repeated to the employees at the
beginning of each season. Be sure to observe and follow the instructions for
the safety of anyone operating or near the machine.
Investigation has shown that nearly one-third of all farm accidents are
caused by careless use of machinery. You can do your part in improving
safety by observing the following suggestions. Insist that all people working
with you or for you abide by them.

There are three levels of hazard intensity that
appear with the safety alert symbol on safety
decals: DANGER, WARNING, and CAUTION.
The level of hazard intensity is determined by the
following definitions:
DANGER - Immediate hazards which
WILL result in death or serious
personal injury.
WARNING - Hazards or unsafe practices
which COULD result in death or
serious personal injury.
CAUTION - Indicates potentially hazardous
situations, or directs attention to
unsafe practices which could
result in minor or moderate injury.
•Examine safety decals and be sure you
have the correct safety decals for the
machine.
•Order replacement decals through your
BRILLION dealer.
•Keep these signs clean so they can be
observed readily. It is important to keep
these decals cleaned more frequently
than the machine. Wash with soap and
water or cleaning solution as required.
•Replace decals that become damaged or
lost. Also be sure that any new machine
components installed during repair
include decals which are assigned to
them by the manufacturer.
•When applying decals to the machine,
be sure to clean the surface to remove
any dirt or residue. Where possible, sign
placement should protect the sign from
abrasion, damage, or obstruction from
mud, dirty oil, etc.
•Decals for the Zone Commander are
pictured below. Their locations on
the machine are shown on the following

LEVEL ADJUSTMENT
Adjust the length of the top link so that the
machine is parallel (front to rear) to the ground
surface when operating at the desired depth.
TURNING
The machine should always be raised com-
pletely out of the ground when turning. This
will relieve stress on the shanks, mounting
hardware, and machine frame.
DEPTH CONTROL of SHANKS
Adjust the height of
the manual gauge
wheel by removing
the bolts and sliding
the gauge wheel
arm to the desired
position within the
mount. Replace the
bolts and tighten
before operating.
See Figure 4.

After the desired depth of the
shanks have been set, changes
to the working depth of the
coulter blades can be made.
Simply lower the assembly by
loosening the locking nuts and
set screws which hold the shaft.
Adjust to desired depth, make
sure that the coulter stop is
facing forward to allow the
coulter arm to swing side to
side. See Figure 7.
Tighten the set screws and the
locking nuts.

Cast brackets after May 2003;
Eliminates need for grease
fittings except one as shown on
page 11.
** Note: As a result of a weldments-to-casting conversion, the trunion bracket casting will not
be interchangeable with its welded counterpart. Therefore, the trunion casting and the trunion/
wear sleeve assembly have been given different part numbers. Those castings which are
directly interchangeable with their welded counterpart have kept the same number as the
weldments. Therefore:
If you order: You will receive
(1) 6K782-Welded Trunion Brkt. ..... (1) 8K627-Trunion Asm, (1) 8K625-Pivot Asm, (1) 8K626-Pivot Asm.
(1) 6K671-Pivot Brkt. ...................... (1) 8K627-Trunion Asm, (1) 8K625-Pivot Asm, (1) 8K626-Pivot Asm.
(1) 6K672-Pivot Brkt. ...................... (1) 8K627-Trunion Asm, (1) 8K625-Pivot Asm, (1) 8K626-Pivot Asm.
