MSC 3SI UTV Full Cab Enclosure for Hard Windshield Instruction Manual

Installation Instructions

Thank you for purchasing a UTV enclosure manufactured in the USA with pride by 3SI UTV. Your enclosure is made of heavy duty fabric that is water repellent and resistant to mildew, ultra-violet rays and abrasion. With proper installation and care you can expect many years of service from your 3SI UTV enclosure.

SOME IMPORTANT NOTES BEFORE GETTING STARTED….

• The enclosure attaches to your UTV’s cab frame with Velcro. The technical term for Velcro is hook and loop.
  Loop is the soft side and hook, the rough side. Loop has been sewn into the enclosure at various points.
  Adhesive hook has been supplied to attach to your cab frame, corresponding to the sewn-in loop. If you struggle with placement of the adhesive hook, with the enclosure held to the cab frame, note the locations of the sewnin loop. The adhesive hook is attached to the cab frame at those locations.

• The adhesive hook should be applied at a temperature of 60 degrees or above. For maximum adhesion,
  when the adhesive hook is in place, allow the adhesive to cure for 24 hours before attaching the loop to the hook.

• Clean the surfaces the adhesive hook will be attached to before beginning installation. A light cleaning with mild
  soap and water is best. A little Windex works great. Do NOT wax or clean with a compound that leaves the
  frame slick. The adhesive hook will not stick to a slick surface. Again, a light cleaning is best.

• Your enclosure is not a “one size fits all” product. The enclosure was designed and manufactured specifically for your model UTV. As a result, the enclosure should fit square and snug to the cab frame.

• Periodic cleaning of your enclosure with mild soap and water is recommended to minimize accumulations of
  dirt.

• Clean the vinyl windows with mild soap, water, and a soft cloth to avoid scratches. DO NOT USE ANY

DETERGENTS, WINDOW CLEANERS, SOLVENTS OR CHEMICALS TO CLEAN VINYL WINDOWS.

• Clean your enclosure and allow it to dry before removing for storage. Never fold your enclosure to store. Roll
  the enclosure to avoid creasing the vinyl windows. Creases in the vinyl windows cannot be removed.

CREASING THE VINYL WINDOWS VOIDS ALL WARRANTIES AND GUARANTEES.

• The only enclosures manufactured by 3SI UTV that can be hauled when installed are Lexan windshields, full cab enclosures, and door/rear window combos with top and windshield installed. However, the enclosures should
  be tied down before hauling. Speed should not exceed 55 mph while hauling to prevent ripping and shredding of the material and zippers. REMOVE ALL OTHER ENCLOSURES BEFORE HAULING.

PLEASE READ AND FOLLOW THE DETAILED INSTRUCTIONS THAT ARE ATTACHED.

You have just purchased the best Enclosure for your Utility Terrain Vehicle available on the market today. Your
Enclosure is made of Heavy Duty Fabric that is Water Repellent and resistant to Mildew, Ultra-Violet Sun Rays and
Abrasion. With proper installation and care you can expect many years of long lasting fit, color and service life from your 3SI UTV Enclosure.

Step 1: Remove your 3SI UTV Enclosure and Velcro Kit from the shipping box

Contents:

1 – Kawasaki Teryx Full Cab Enclosure (for use with Lexan Windshield Kit)
2 – 29” Velcro Strips – Front Windshield Roll Bar Uprights
2 – 10” Velcro Strips – Door Bottom Rocker Panel
2 – 9” Velcro Strips – Door Lower Rear
10 – 8” Velcro Strips – Rear Roll Bar Post Uprights middle
1 – 49” Velcro Strip – Front Windshield Visor placed horizontally across the Top

Note: before applying adhesive Velcro Strips to your vehicle, surfaces should be free of dust, dirt and oil.

Step 2: Place Enclosure on top of Roll Bar Cage and align corner seams with outside center of roll bars. Pull the
enclosure down until it is tight on the Roll Bar Cage.

Step 3: Temporarily attach each Velcro Strip to its corresponding size Velcro Tab on the Enclosure. DO NOT REMOVE PLASTIC BACKING FROM VELCRO STRIPS AT THIS TIME. This will help you to orient the Velcro Strips to the correct position on the vehicle when it is time to install the Velcro Strips.

Step 4: Pull the Enclosure down tightly and align outside corner seams with the center of each Roll Bar. With a piece of chalk, mark the outline of each Velcro Tab on the Vehicle Frame and Roll Bars. At this point Velcro Strips can be removed from Enclosure Velcro Tabs and attached to the Vehicle in the order shown below. Note Velcro Strips should be oriented on the Vehicle so that each corresponding Enclosure Velcro Tab matches its position when the Enclosure is stretched tight on the Vehicle Roll Bar Cab frame.

A. Remove plastic backing and adhere 8” Velcro Strips at Lower Rear of Cab Frame. Note these Velcro strips are placed behind the seats inside the cab. Make sure the strips are oriented to match the Rear Cab Frame Velcro Tabs on the enclosure.
B. Remove plastic backing and adhere the 9” Velcro Strips vertically to the Lower Rear Door frame area. Remove plastic backing and adhere the 10” Velcro Strips horizontally along the bottom rear of the Door Frame Rocker Panel. Remove plastic from 8” Velcro Strips and adhere inside the cab at the front lower Door Frame.
C. Remove plastic backing and adhere the 8” Velcro Strips to the lower front of the Side Cowl Panel area
D. Remove plastic backing and adhere the 8” Velcro Strips vertically along the Middle of the Rear Roll Bar Post uprights
E. Remove plastic backing and adhere the 29” Strips vertically along the Front Windshield Roll Bar Posts
F. Remove plastic backing and adhere the 49” Strip horizontally along the Top of the Lexan Windshield Visor area

Step 5: Begin attaching Enclosure by first squaring the back of the Enclosure to the Rear of the Cab frame and
attaching the Lower Rear Cab Frame Enclosure Velcro tabs to the installed 8” Velcro strips.

Step 6: Pulling upward & outward on the top Rear corners of the Enclosure, attach Rear Roll Bar Upright upper
Enclosure tabs to installed 8” Velcro Strips. This should straighten the back window section of the Enclosure.

Step 7: Pulling the Enclosure outward and downward toward the front of the vehicle attach the 29” Enclosure
Windshield Velcro tabs to the Front Roll Bar Post upright Velcro strips as shown in figure 7.1. Note: you will need to cut out sections of these tabs to accommodate your hard windshield clamps. Simply mark the position of your hard
windshield clamps on the Velcro tab and cut out a 2” section with household scissors being careful not to cut the
binding. Using a lighter slightly burn the frayed ends to prevent further fraying. See figure 7.2, 7.3 and 7.4. Re-attach Velcro to Front Roll Bars.

Figure 7.1

Figure 7.2 – Mark the Windshield Velcro Tabs for hard windshield Clamp locations

Figure 7.3 – Cut a 2” section out around where your clamps will be positioned on the Velcro Tab – be careful not to cut the binding

Figure 7.4 – Carefully burn the frayed thread around the cut area with a lighter

Step 8: Zip Doors Closed and attach the bottom Side Cowl 8”, Lower Rear Door 9”, Bottom Door Rear 10” and Front Lower Door Frame 8” (inside) Enclosure Tabs to the installed Velcro Strips as shown in figure 8.1.

Figure 8.1
Step 9: Repeat Steps 6, 7 and 8 as necessary until the Enclosure fits snuggly to the Vehicle Roll Bar structure as shown in figure 9.1. Note: Once the Enclosure is installed the Lexan Windshield will be placed over the Front Windshield Roll Bar Velcro Tabs so that the leading edges of the binding rest against the Windshield edge to form a complete seal.

Figure 9.1
Step 10: Refer to your GCL Polycarbonate Windshield Kit Instructions to install your GCL Lexan Windshield. Note: the 49” Front Windshield Visor Velcro Strip will be placed horizontally across the Top of you Lexan Windshield and will attach to the Enclosure Top Front Leading Visor Tab.

Care Instructions

Heavy Duty Marine and Mil-Spec Military Fabric Cleaning
All 3SI UTV Enclosure Heavy Duty Marine and Military Camo fabrics are guaranteed against excessive loss of
color or strength under normal exposure and use conditions. Periodic cleaning with a solution of 4 ounces of
bleach and 2 ounces of soap (NOT DETERGENTS) in one gallon of water is recommended to minimize accumulations of dirt, bird droppings and other contaminants which can support surface mildew and stain fabric.

Soft Vinyl Window Cleaning
3SI UTV Enclosure Vinyl Windows will remain clear and provide great visibility under normal exposure
conditions if properly cleaned. Periodic cleaning with a solution of 1 ounce of soap in one gallon of water is
all that is needed to maintain good window cleanliness and visibility. Caution: DO NOT USE ANY
DETERGENTS, WINDOW CLEANERS, SOLVENTS or CHEMICALS OF ANY KIND TO CLEAN VINYL WINDOWS AS THESE WILL CLOUD THE WINDOWS. ALSO, NEVER RUB WINDOWS WITH A DRY CLOTH OR RAG.

Storage Recommendations
Before removing the 3SI UTV Enclosure from your vehicle for storage, clean the Fabric and Vinyl Windows
thoroughly as indicated above. Any dirt remaining on the Enclosure may scratch Vinyl Windows while in
storage. Once the Enclosure has been cleaned it should be placed on a large flat surface. Lay the Enclosure
out so that Vinyl Windows are in a flat position. Fold the doors over the rear panel first then fold the top
and windshield on top of the doors keeping the Vinyl Windows flat. Caution: FOLDING VINYL WINDOWS
WILL CAUSE PERMANENT CREASE DAMAGE AND WILL VOID ALL WARRANTIES. Once the Enclosure is folded keeping all Vinyl Windows flat, begin rolling the Enclosure into an 8” roll. Place the 8” roll into a box and store at normal room temperature. To ensure long life of your enclosure it is best not to store in extreme temperatures.

Hauling
The ONLY products manufactured by 3SI UTV that can be hauled while installed are the hard windshields,
full cab enclosures, and door/rear window combos with top and windshield installed. However, the full cab
enclosures and door/rear window combos should be tied down before hauling. Speed should not exceed 55 mph while hauling to prevent ripping and shredding of the material and zippers. NEVER HAUL INSTALLED
SOFT TOPS, WINDSHIELD TOP COMBOS, AND SUMMER CABS. REMOVE BEFORE HAULING.
