GENERAL SAFETY REGULATIONS
If correctly installed and used, the MISTRAL ENV automated system
will ensure a high degree of safety. Some simple rules on behaviour
can prevent accidental trouble:
Do not stand near the automated system, and do not allow chil-
dren, persons or things to do so, especially when it is operating.
Keep radio-controls, or any other pulse generators that could
involuntarily activate the automated system, well away from
children.
Do not allow children to play with the automated system.
Do not willingly obstruct gate movement.
Prevent any branches or shrubs from interfering with gate mo-
vement.
Keep the indicator-lights efficient and easy to see.
Do not attempt to activate the gate by hand unless you have
released it.
In the event of malfunctions, release the gate to allow access
and wait for qualified technical personnel to do the necessary
work.
When you have set manual operation mode, cut power to the
system before restoring normal operation.
Do not in any way modify the components of the automated
system.
Do not attempt any kind of repair of direct action whatever and
contact qualified personnel only.
At least every six months: arrange a check by qualified per-
sonnel of the automated system, safety devices and earth
connection.
DESCRIPTION
The MISTRAL ENV automated system for swing-leaf gates is an
electro-mechanical operator transmitting motion to the leaf via
a worm screw system.
A convenient and reliable release with customized key makes it
possible to move the leaf by hand in the event of malfunction or
power failure.
The MISTRAL ENV automation can ensure, if properly installed and
adjusted, an installation complies with current safety standards. The
management of a virtual encoder further enhances the security
level of automation. Thanks to the virtual encoder, the automated
system is able to check the gate position continuously and to stop
its movement in the event of obstacle detection.
For details on sliding gate behaviour in different function logics,
consult the installation Technician.
Automated systems include safety devices (photocells) that pre-
vent the gate from closing when there is an obstacle in the area
they protect.
The warning-light indicates that the gate is currently moving.
MANUAL OPERATION
If the automated system needs to be moved manually due to a
power lack or to an operator malfunction, proceed as follows:
Cut power by means of the safety circuit breaker (even in the
event of a power lack).

To hold the operator in manual operation the release device
should be left in its current positions and the system should
be without power.
RESTORING NORMAL OPERATION
To restore normal operating conditions, proceed as follows:
Make sure that the system is not powered.
Turn the release system 180° in the opposite direction of the
arrow.
Turn 90° the release key and remove it.
Close the control lever and the protection cover.
Make sure that the gate cannot be moved manually.
Power up the system and perform some movements in order
to check the correct restoring of every function of the auto-
mated system.
MAINTENANCE
To ensure trouble-free operation and a constant safety level, an
overall check of the system should be carried out every 6 months.
A form for recording operations has been included in the “User’s
Guide” booklet.
