Replaced kioti cab windshield

[4570Man]

Too bad it isn't auto windshield glass.
Would have made clean-up easier!

My 90s model cat trackhoe has laminated glass. Other manufacturers should do the same.

You got that right. I am storing the plexiglas in the carriage barn. Was expensive and a pain in the butt to make.

4570 We need the details behind the windshield damage. I Like to learn from others if I can.

Sorry to see though.

I didn’t realize there was anything in the bucket but a firewood round was still in there that didn’t dump out. I had the bucket above the cab and was spinning around to drive the other direction and the chunk fell out of the bucket and hit the window.

Plexyglass as thick as the actual glass window was more expensive than the glass repair window.

Thanks to covid buy up of all plexyglass at the time
