INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION
Notice: Do not smoke inside the cab or expose the enclosure to direct flames. Cab is Flammable.
-
Be sure to read these instructions thoroughly before opening and installing the 2014 John Deere 825i Soft Door Rear Window Combo. The installation is best done when the temperature is 70 degrees F. or warmer. The temperature affects the adhesive Velcro, if conditions prevent installing in warmer weather it helps to store the adhesive Velcro at room temperature prior to installation.
-
Carefully open the carton and remove the enclosure on a large flat surface that is clean and free of dirt.
-
Check over the parts included in the carton with the parts list shown below:

The cab will be put together using the following parts and in this order.
1 Soft Doors
2 Rear Window
SOFT DOORS
-
Begin by installing the soft doors. If possible, have someone else hold the door in place and mark the location of each Velcro strip sewn along the edge of the door. Now take the supplied 3” adhesive Velcro strips and wrap them around the roll cage at the marked locations. Now put the door back onto the vehicle and wrap the double-sided Velcro around the adhesive Velcro as shown in the photos on the next page.
-
The diagrams below show how the double-sided straps and the 3” adhesive Velcro works.
-
Now that the doors are in place and all the double-sided strips are attached to the frame you can now attach the remaining pieces of adhesive Velcro to match up with the Velcro tabs or strips sewn to the front door. Going down the REAR of the doors there is one at the top that will Velcro onto the flat metal towards the rear of the vehicle. You will use an 8” adhesive Velcro strip here. Below the flat part you will take the 34” adhesive strip and run it down the bar facing the rear of the vehicle. The pictures below show how these Velcro strips should look.
-
Now it’s time to work on the bottom of the door. The front part has two strips of Velcro that goes on the front fender. The outer portion of the door has Velcro sewn to the bottom of it and will attach flat to the top of the fender. The bottom front section of the door has a strip of Velcro that attaches to the fender facing the rear of the vehicle. Photos below shows where the Velcro strips should be.
-
Lastly place an adhesive Velcro strip along the side of the floor as shown below.
REAR WINDOW -
Start the Rear Window installation by attaching the 53” adhesive Velcro along the bottom of the vehicle across the back as shown in the photo below.
-
Next attach a piece of 26” adhesive Velcro across the top bar, it should be placed on the top slightly angled towards the front of the vehicle. See Photo below.
-
The sides of the rear window will attach to the double-sided Velcro tabs that hold the rear of the doors in place.
-
This concludes your installation. If you have any questions please call Falcon Ridge. Thank You
Cleaning and Storage Recommendations:
- Before removing the Falcon Ridge Cab for storage, make sure it is very clean in order to prevent scratching of the window panels. Clean with a soft rag or sponge using a mild liquid detergent soap and warm water solution. Never rub the windows with a dry cloth or rag! Let the Cab dry thoroughly before attempting to roll for storage.
- It is important that the Cab be rolled up for storage rather than folding. Folding will cause damage to the windows!!! Carefully roll up the Cab similar to the way it was when it was packed at the factory. On a large, clean and flat surface, fold the doors over the rear panel first, then, interleave the top and windshield on top of the doors. Begin rolling the Cab into a roll approximately 8 inches in diameter. Put the rolled Cab back into the carton for storage at a normal room temperature. It is best not to expose the Cab to either extreme hot or cold temperatures when storing.
- A special cleaner conditioner is available from Falcon Ridge that will greatly increase the service life of the Cab Enclosure. In addition, if additional hook and loop sets are needed, they can also be ordered.
