Installation
a) Find a clean flat area where you can safely lay down the windshield (Item A). Partially remove the protective film on both sides and apply the co-extruded bulb seal (Item C) using manual pressure to ensure good adhesion and cut any excess.

IMPORTANT NOTICES |
Torque specifications must be followed when tightening bolts. Over-tightening any and/or all screws will cause cracks around mounting holes which is not covered by any warranty |
b) Vent assembly (Item B) installation: Partially remove the protective film on both sides of the windshield around the vent cutouts and follow instructions below.
a. From the front side (cab side) of the windshield, slide the vent flap assembly (Item B) in the vent cut out as shown in image b1. Ensure the lower tab nests into the front of the windshield as shown in image b2 & b3
b. Install the remaining vent components (Item B) using supplied hardware as shown below in image b4 & b5



IMPORTANT NOTICES |
| TWO people are required to install the windshield to the roll cage. Since windshield is wider at the bottom, gentle manipulation and/or slight bending by each person will be required for windshield to slide all the way down into position Warning: Exercise extreme care during the next step in order to ensure that you do not damage the windshield or vehicle. This is a tight fit. |
c) Install the windshield to the vehicle as shown below

d) Install the supplied hardware (Item D) as shown below. Adjust the position of the windshield and tighten
Caution: over tightening any hardware could cause irreversible damage to the windshield.

IMPORTANT NOTICES |
| Trailerable ONLY with a FULL Front windshield AND Roof – or damage can occur! Due to extreme wind turbulence, towing on an open trailer pulled by motor home, bus or other large size vehicle at highway speeds is NOT recommended. |
CAUTION |
| Limited Towing at lower speeds (60mph or less) for shorter distances is acceptable with a FULL Front Windshield AND Roof ONLY. Prolonged towing at highway speeds on an Open trailer is NOT recommended and can cause damage that is NOT covered under Warranty. Whenever towing anytime, it is mandatory to check all windshield hardware BEFORE towing and at frequent intervals afterwards! SPIKE suggests removal of Rear Windshields if towed in any conditions that are NOT recommended – removal will also create less drag on the tow vehicle |
Maintenance and Care
Tighten all hardware after first use and periodically thereafter.
