Setup and Installation

- Site Preparation: Ensure the ground where the gate and rail will be installed is level, stable, and free of obstructions. Proper drainage should be considered.

- Gate Assembly: Assemble the VIAZO gate panel according to the included assembly instructions. This typically involves attaching the handle, key lock, and door stopper.
- Gate Mounting: Carefully position the gate onto the installed rail. Ensure the gate moves freely along the rail before proceeding.
- Motor Installation: Mount the CODY sliding gate motor on its base plate next to the gate, ensuring it is aligned correctly with the gate's drive mechanism.
