From all of us at Curtis, we thank you for choosing our product.
HELPFUL HINTS:
•Refer to parts diagram found in the service parts section of this manual to help identify parts
during the assembly process.
•To assist with the cab installation, leave all fasteners loose for later adjustment unless
otherwise specified.
•Read and understand all instructions before beginning.
•Apply a silicone sealant to seal any minor gaps that may occur due to vehicle variations.
•Use caution to avoid damaging the factory installed threaded inserts or weld nuts. Begin the
thread engagement by hand to avoid or correct potential cross threading.
•Make sure the areas where the supplied self-adhesive hook Velcro will be applied are clean
and dry and at room temperature for best adhesion.

Step 1: (Vehicle Prep)
1.1 Park vehicle in a location accessible by an
overhead hoist.
1.2 Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
1.3 Remove the bolt from the battery clamp and
replace with a longer one from the supplied
hardware kit and re-use the nut, but do not re-
connect the battery.
Hardware Used Qty
5/16x1-1/4 Square Head Bolt 1
1.4 Remove the plastic cover around both the left and
right control sticks. (Note: the nut on the lower
screw can be loosened slightly and the panel can
then be removed. It does not need to be fully
removed from the screw.)
1.5 Install the supplied bulb rubber to the bottom
flange of the covers. The rubber should be joined
where shown.
1.6 Re-install only the left plastic cover ensuring that
the bulb on the rubber is not causing interference
with the controls or switch. The right cover will be
re-installed in a later step.
1.7 Disconnect the wires from the stud on the starter
as well as the wire plugged into the connector on
the starter.
1.8 Remove and discard three bolts from the left side
of the engine as shown.

Step 2: (Dynamo Installation)
2.1 Remove and save the OEM dynamo. Discard the
mounting hardware.
2.2 Remove and discard the nut and washers from the
OEM dynamo shaft.
2.3 Remove and discard the shaft from the OEM
dynamo, but keep the dynamo together when
removing to ensure spacer stays in its proper
location. If the rotor is separated from the stator
and the spacer comes loose, re-install with the
smooth convex side of spacer inwards against the
bearing.
2.4 Install the OEM dynamo onto the shaft of the
secondary dynamo provided in the kit. A rubber or
plastic mallet may be required to tap the shaft
through the bearings. Secure with the following
hardware and torque to 39.2 to 44.1 Nm (28.9 to
32.5 lbf-ft). Ensure that the flat washer is centered
over the shaft when tightening.
Hardware Used Qty
M12x24 Steel Flat Washer 1
M10x18 Split Lock Washer 1
M10x1.25 Nut 1
2.5 Position the supplied steel spacer and the thickest
shim washer from the hardware kit that will fit
between the top dynamo ears. Rotating the
dynamo shaft may allow a thicker shim to fit.
The fastening bolt should pass through the
smooth hole of the secondary dynamo, through
the spacer, shim, and then thread into the OEM
dynamo ear. Tighten fully and back off 1/2 turn.
Note: There are two of each thickness shim
washers in the kit. The exact same thickness
shim must be used between the lower pivot mount
and secondary dynamo in step 2.7.
Hardware Used Qty

2.6 Hang the double dynamo setup onto the vehicle
with the OEM dynamo back into its original
location with the threads on the previously
installed bolt protruding through the upper dynamo
adjustment slot. Install a nut onto the end of the
bolt, but do not tighten.
Hardware Used Qty
M8x1.25 Flange Locknut 1
2.7 Install the same thickness shim washer as was
used on the upper ears (step 2.5) between the
lower pivot mount and secondary dynamo. The
dynamo shaft may need to be rotated to allow the
shim to fit.
Install the lower pivot bolt from the front side of the
OEM dynamo. With a lock washer and then a flat
washer under the head of the bolt, pass through
the smooth hole in the OEM dynamo, through the
ear on the engine, through the appropriate
thickness stainless steel shim washer, and thread
into the secondary dynamo ear. Tighten the bolt
and then back off 1/2 turn.

2.8 Tighten the upper dynamo bolt only, at this time.
Do not tighten the upper dynamo nut.
2.9 Re-install the OEM belt onto the OEM dynamo
and tension. Tighten nut on the upper dynamo
bolt first then the lower pivot bolt. Note: hold the
head of the upper bolt while tightening the nut.

Step 3: (Install ROPS Mounts)
3.1 Remove the left and right hand tension screws
and clips on the ROPS and discard.
3.2 Remove the ROPS pin and bolt from the left side
and discard. Leave the right side installed at this
time.
3.3 Remove the upper bolt on the cross hose
protector as shown and discard.
3.4 Install the left ROPS mount using the following
hardware. The large bolt in the pivot hole should
be tightened just enough so that the ROPS can
still tilt without damaging the paint. The large bolt
in the hole where the pin was removed should be
installed through the bracket, but no nut installed
at this time. Tighten the smaller M8 bolt at this
time.
Hardware Used Qty
M16x2x80mm Hex Head Bolt 2
M16x30 Steel Flat Washer 3
M16x2 Locknut 1

3.5 Repeat steps 3.2, 3.3, and 3.4 for the right side.
3.6 Remove the lower M16 bolts from the previous
steps and tilt the ROPS back and re-use the bolts
to pin in the tilted position. Be careful not to
damage the engine hood if it is in the open
position. The nuts on the lower bolts will be
installed in a later step.

4.10 Flip the seat forward and install the supplied
adhesive Velcro as shown. Be sure to wipe down
the surfaces where the Velcro will be adhered and
that the surfaces are at room temperature.
Apply between round seat bumpers
Apply along horizontal edge of fenders
Apply 3 sections underneath front seat support
frame member as indicated by dotted line. Velcro

Step 5: (Cabin Installation)
5.1 Lower the seat and slide the seat all the way
forward and use the knob on the seat to tilt the
seatback forward as much as possible.
5.2 Remove the doors from the cabin and set aside
carefully to prevent scratching the panels.
5.3 Remove the 3 bolts securing the compressor
bracket to the base of the shipping mount and cut
any zip ties holding the hoses and wire harness to
the shipping mount. Support the compressor
using a bungee cord or rope. Do not ever use the
hoses to support the compressor or damage may
occur.
5.4 Position a lifting strap where shown so that it sits
roughly 2” in front of the b-pillar.

5.5 Put tension on the lifting strap with the overhead
hoist. Remove and discard the 4 bolts holding the
rear of the cab down to the shipping bracket
(located inside the cab) as well as the 4 lag
screws holding the floorboards to the pallet.
5.6 With assistance, lift the cabin and position over the
vehicle. Be sure to support the A/C compressor
so that it never hangs from the hoses.
5.7 Lower the cabin slowly onto the vehicle being
careful to not scratch the fenders with the rear
edge of the floorboard. The A/C compressor
should pass to the inside of the ROPS and end up
on the left side of the engine.

7.4 Locate the portion of the wire harness with two
ring terminals crimped on the ends of black and
gray wires. Route the ring terminals forward over
the ROPS tube in front of the battery next to the
existing wiring and up along the right side of the
vehicle to right hand control.
Note: Wires must be routed above the ROPS, but
below the flat area that the hood seals on when it
is closed.
Avoid any moving parts.
7.5 Route the wires up behind the right control stick
and connect to the supplied switch as shown. The
gray wire should go to the center screw (NO, #3)
and the black wire should be connected to the
COM, #1 screw.
It is recommended to do the assembly over the
floor of the tractor to prevent losing any screws.
7.6 Remove the bolt shown in figure 7.6 and re-install
with the switch bracket so that the spring loaded
switch rod will be contacted by the throttle control
lever. Adjust the bracket and switch so that when
the throttle control lever is beyond 3/4 throttle the
switch is engaged. The switch can be rotated on
the bracket and the bracket can also be rotated
where it mounts to the vehicle.

Step 10: (Filler Installation)
10.1 Raise the seat and install the rubber underseat
filler panel as shown. Start by aligning the panel
over the round rubber bumpers that the seat rests
on and work around the perimeter to attach to the
pre-installed Velcro.
10.2 Install Velcro around the perimeter of the
underseat filler in the areas where Velcro was not
pre-installed using the filler as the locating
template for the Velcro. Be sure to wipe down the
surfaces where the Velcro will be adhered and
that the surfaces are at room temperature.
10.3 Lower the seat, slide the seat completely forward,
tilt seat back forward, and install adhesive Velcro
to the seat base so that it is located up against the
stamped rib as shown.
