Kawasaki KAWKRX-DRH-3SI Half Door and Rear Window
IINSTRUCTION MANUAL
KAWASAKI TERY X KRX
Half Door and Rear Window
Your enclosure is made of heavy duty fabric that is water repellent and resistant to mildew, ultra-violet rays and abrasion.
Surface Preparation Instructions and Guidelines
Cleaning: To achieve a strong bond between Velcro adhesive and UTV surface, you must clean the surface. Use a mixture of 50% alcohol and 50% water to remove dirt, mud and dust from roll bars and plastic body components.
Let dry. Repeat this process 3 times.
The adhesive hook should be applied at a temperature of 70 degrees or above.
Bond between UTV and adhesive hook is dependent upon the amount of adhesive to
surface contact development. Firm application pressure develops a better
adhesive contact and improves bond strength.
After application, the bond strength increases and approaches the ultimate
bond strength after 72 hours. Bond strength build up: 20 min equals 50% bond
strength, 1 hour equals 75% bond strength, one day equals 90% bond strength,
and 3 days equals 100% bond strength.
More tips for installation.
Two is better than one: We recommend a second person be involved for the installation process. Getting the panel in the correct position takes some pulling and tugging, we find the process runs smoother when two people are involved.
Test adhesion: Use a small piece of Velcro, remove backing and adhere to roll
bars. Wait 20 minutes, Velcro should already be difficult to remove.
Still having trouble with adhesion: If Velcro is still not adhering to the
roll bars, use a piece of hook (rough side of Velcro) to “rough up” the
surface of your roll bar. We do not recommend this for the plastic body of
your UTV, it will scratch.
Unsure about Velcro placement: With-out removing the white backing,
attach the Velcro to your enclosure panel. Hold panel up to the UTV and note
the area that the Velcro should attach. You can use the double-sided straps
with-out Velcro to help hold up the panel while you remove the white backing
and adhere sticky Velcro. We will send extra Velcro that can be used to hold
the enclosure to the cab frame for easy notation of Velcro placement.
Attaching panel: Attach the panel top first, then work your way around the
panel pulling the tabs and sticking them to the corresponding adhesive Velcro.
The Webbing (black trim) of the panel should align to the middle of the roll
bar.
Installing with Windshield and Hard Top.
If you have a windshield and or hard top on your UTV, you will need to remove
it before installing the door and rear panel. After the installation of your
enclosure is complete you will then reinstall the windshield and hard top.
If clamps for the windshield or hard top are interfering with the sewn-on
Velcro tabs or straps on your enclosure, you can modify the tabs and straps
easily by cutting them to fit. Mark where the tabs need to be cut to
accommodate your windshield or hard tops clamps or bolts. Cut the tabs and
burn the edges with a lighter to prevent unraveling. Do not cut into the
binding (darker black trim around your door panel).
Installation Instructions
Step 1: Remove your 3SI UTV Cab Enclosure and Velcro kit from the shipping
box.
Step 2: Remove exsisting windshield and hard top.
Step 3: Clean all surfaces on which you will be placing the adhesive Velcro
according to the surface preparation instructions. Wait until the surfaces are
dry.
Step 4: Remove the backing from the adhesive hook strips and install as
indicated in the following adhesive hook table and pictures. Press firmly.
Step 5: Wait 72 hours! This step is very important to the life of your Velcro.
Waiting the full 72 hours will ensure that your Velcro and enclosure will stay
on in rain, sleet, snow or mud.
Step 6: After all adhesive Velcro strips are attached, begin attaching each
panel to the cab frame.
Step 7: After all panels are attached work your way around the UTV remove,
pull, and reattach, each Velcro tabs to achieve a tight fit. You may need to
do this a few times.
Step 8: When your enclosure is in the correct position the binding or trim
around the panels will rest in the center of the roll bar. If you have a
windshield the binding, will rest along the edge of your windshield.
Step 9: Re-install your windshield, and hard top.
See enclosed Product Care sheet for instructions on how to properly care for your 3SI UTV Enclosure.

FAQ:
Q: How long should I wait for the bond strength to develop fully?
A: Bond strength build-up: 20 min (50%), 1 hour (75%), 1 day (90%), 3 days (100%).
Q: What should I do if the Velcro does not adhere well to the roll bars?
A: Use a piece of hook (rough side of Velcro) to rough up the surface of the roll bar for better adhesion.
Q: Is it necessary to clean the surfaces before applying the adhesive?
A: Yes, cleaning the surfaces with a mixture of alcohol and water is essential for a strong bond between Velcro adhesive and UTV surface.
