For accurate installation, proper operation, and years of satisfaction, please read and understand the installation instructions. From all of us at Curtis, we thank you for choosing our product. ADDED WEIGHT Curtis Cabs, blades and general accessories add additional weight to the base vehicle. All Curtis accessory weights are listed in product brochures. Deduct the accessory's total weight from the vehicle's rated capacity and never exceed the vehicle's rated capacity including driver and passenger. Exposure to Carbon Monoxide can Cause illness, serious injury or death. Never operate vehicle if suspicious of Carbon Monoxide. Inspect exhaust system for leaks monthly. Leaks can result from loose connections, corrosion, cracks or other damage to the exhaust manifold. If leaks are found, repair or replace exhaust system. Do not use vehicle until repair or replacement is complete. CAB INSTALLATION BEFORE YOU START HELPFUL HINTS: A.
