Installation Instructions
WARNING: Be sure to fit the windshield on the vehicle prior to removing protective film to make sure a good fit. Once protective film is removed the windshield cannot be returned for refund.

Check over the parts included in the carton with the parts list shown below:
1-3/4” loom clamps 8 each
1” stainless steel bolts 14 each
1-1/4” stainless bolts 2 each
Stainless steel washers 34 each
Stainless steel locknuts 8 each
Stainless steel nuts 4 each
Thumbnuts 6 each
Rubber gasket 1 each
Lexan windshield 3 pieces(windshield+braces) -
Pull the windshield and all of the hardware out of the box. Begin by removing all of the protective film from the windshield pieces(be careful to do this in a clean environment so as to not scratch the windshield).
-
Now take therubber gasket provided and install it along the bottom of the windshield. Take care to seat the gasket fully to the bottom edge contour.
Install the top and bottom braces using 1 stainless bolt, 1 stainless locknut, and 2 stainless washers per hole. On most models, the bottom brace is widest(installed inside the windshield), with the narrower brace used at the top(installed outside the windshield). Other models use the same brace top and bottom. The bolts should be installed through the front of the windshield with the bolt head facing forward, the locknuts on the back of the windshield facing rearward, with one washer under the bolt head and one washer behind the locknut at the rear. Install both braces using this sequence; even though the bottom brace is installed inside the windshield the bolt heads should still face forward, and hardware orientation remains the same as stated above(see fig.1).Note: if you are installing with a Falcon Ridge cab enclosure, wait until you have fully installed the enclosure and fitted the windshield to bolt the upper brace to the windshield.
The upper brace is bolted to the windshield on the outside through the front visor of the cab enclosure as shown in fig. 1 and should be the final step in the installation. -
Now you are ready to place the windshield on your vehicle. With help, place the windshield up on the hood. The rubber gasket should temporarily hold it up, but be careful. The bent angle at the top of the windshield should go underneath the top bar of the roll cage. Nearthetop slot in the top windshield, take a 1-3/4”clamp and wrap it around the roll cage tube and then run a bolt with a washer through both ears of the clamp from the inside out(see fig. 2). Then place another washer on the bolt before the slot and run the bolt through the slot in the windshield.
Screw on a thumbnut and tighten until just snug. You may need a Phillips screwdriver to hold the bolt from the back while tightening the thumbnut.
Repeat thisstep at all horizontal slot locations on the windshield. For the two vertical slots in the lower windshield, refer to fig. 3. -
Before tightening down make sure that the windshield is centered. After the windshield is centered satisfactorily, tighten everything down.
-
Enjoy, and remember- when cleaning the windshield do so gently at first with warm water and mild detergent to dislodge any grit that may scratch the Lexan.
After rinsing and drying with a soft cloth, you may then polish the windshield with an appropriate commercially available plastic polish, also available from Falcon Ridge. This will ensure many seasons of clarity and keep scratching and swirling to a minimum. Never use cleaners such as Windex that contain ammonia as doing so may adversely affect the windshield. -
If needed, additional Velcro sets are available, as well as other spare parts and hardware. Contact Falcon Ridge for information.
-
Transporting or trailering your UTV with the windshield installed is not generally recommended. It is best to remove the windshield before transporting your UTV.
