CAUTION: Do not smoke inside the cab or expose the enclosure to direct
flames. The product is FLAMMABLE.
Be sure to read these instructions thoroughly before opening and installing
the enclosure. 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 rolled-up Cab Enclosure on a large flat surface that is clean and free of dirt or other material that may soil or scratch the windows of the Cab.

This cab enclosure is made up of 5 different panels that all come together to fully enclose the vehicle. You may put on different pieces or leave other pieces off to create the enclosure that best meets your needs.

For these instructions, we will be installing the entire enclosure. This will cover every piece so if you should want to install just parts of the enclosure these instructions should be sufficient. The order of installation will be as follows:
a. Rear Window
b. Side Doors
c. Top Panel -
Rear Window Panel:
a. Before installing the Rear Window Panel, you will need to remove the seats and set them aside
b. Begin installation by hanging the rear window from the top by using the 6” adhesive Velcro strips as shown in the photos below:
c. Make sure
that the Rear Window is centered correctly and then move to the bottom of the
panel and take the straps down and around the side bars and then up and
through the ladder lack. Do NOT pull them too tight because when the seats are
replaced they will be pushing on the rear window. See the Photo Below:
d. For now, leave
the sides of the Rear Window unfastened. We will get to that after the Doors
are installed. If you are not planning to install the doors at this point you
can go ahead and attach the sides like you did the previous points along the
top of the Rear Window. -
Door Panels:
a. Begin installation of the Door Panels by hanging them from the Double-Sided Strips along the top of the doors. Hold the door up and mark where each strip is and wrap a 6” adhesive strip around the roll cage. Now hang the door up and it will be in place to install the rest of the Velcro for the door. See the Photo Below:
b. Now move
around the door and attach the remaining Velcro strips in the same manner.
c. You will notice that the top four straps along the rear of the door also have a ladder lock buckle attached to it. These buckles are for the straps sewn to the sides of the rear window and we will get to that soon.
d. Next work your way around the bottom of the door panel and install a snap stud for every snap on the Door Panel. TIP: You may find it easier to snap the screw stud into the socket on the door first and then pull the Door Panel to the position it should be in and push the screw into the plastic to mark its position. Then remove the screw stud from the socket and drive it into the plastic. See the Photos Below:
e. Save the two
snaps on the front lower portion of the door until last. These will go into
the plastic down around your feet and should be facing toward the rear of the
vehicle. See the Photo Below:
g. Lastly on the
door you will take the strap that is sewn to the center webbing strip towards
the front of the door and run it through the safety net buckle and back to the
ladder lock buckle. You may need to adjust the length so that it is not hard
to buckle the webbing when entering the vehicle. See Photo Below:
h. Now you can
go back to the sides of the Rear Window Panel and run the straps on the Rear
Window through the ladder lock buckles on the Door Panels. You will not need
the double-sided Velcro strips sewn to the Rear Window and should tuck them
away down between the two pieces. These Velcro strips are for when you want to
install the Rear Window Panel without doors. -
Top Panel:
a. First take the two straps with grommets in the end and bolt them to the Polycarbonate windshield through the hole in the bottom corners. The bolt should be installed from the inside out with a washer then strap, another washer, and a locknut. Tighten all the way down and then loosen the locknut ½ a turn to free the strap to allow it to swing around to any position.
b. Now place the top over the entire vehicle, the front of the top is identified by the sides not being as steeply curved, and begin lacing the front straps through the ladder lock buckles sewn to the front corners of the top.
c. Now take two of the straps that are sewn to the double-sided Velcro and wrap them around the rear bar of the roll cage halfway between the bottom and the first bend up the bar. The strap should be on the outside of the bars.
d. Now run those straps up and through the ladder lock buckles sewn to the rear of the top.
e. You now need to tighten and loosen the strap of the top so that it is centered correctly and should cover the holes across the top of the windshield.
f. If you were installing the Top by itself, you would use the two remaining straps with double-sided Velcro to attach the front. You may need to cut the straps once fitted, do not cut off too much as you have nothing to hold on to, and pull it tight the next time you go to install it. It is recommended to leave about 6-8” hanging from the buckles. g. Now install the top brace of the windshield as shown in the windshield instructions.
Cleaning and Storage Recommendations
- Before removing the 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 normal room temperature. It is best not to expose the Cab to either extremely 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 the additional hook and loop sets are needed, they can also be ordered. Thank you for your purchase!
