Cardinal Canvas | Vinyl Bobcat Skid Steer Cab Enclosure
Estimated shipping only — your final shipping cost is confirmed at checkout.
The Cardinal Canvas Vinyl Bobcat Skid Steer Cab Enclosure gives your Bobcat a practical barrier against wind, rain, snow, and cold weather without the cost or complexity of adding a rigid cab. Heavy-duty vinyl-coated nylon surrounds the operator area, while 40-mil clear vinyl windows on all four sides maintain visibility around the machine.
Each enclosure is built around specific Bobcat machine families, so choosing the correct Cardinal enclosure model is important for proper fit. The complete enclosure includes the cab cover and removable front door, along with top and rear visibility windows and the necessary mounting hardware. When the weather improves, the quick-on, quick-off design makes it easy to open up the cab again.

How do I know which Cardinal enclosure model I need?
Cardinal assigns a specific enclosure model to each Bobcat machine family. Match your Bobcat model, series, and applicable manufacturing year to the fitment list below before ordering.
Why does the Cardinal enclosure model matter?
Bobcat cab structures changed across different generations and machine families. The enclosure pattern and attachment points are designed around those differences, so two Bobcat machines may require completely different Cardinal enclosure models even if they are similar in size.
Is this a complete cab enclosure?
Yes. The complete enclosure includes the nylon cab cover with clear vinyl windows, removable front door, hinge pins, hinge brackets, S-hook, and owner’s manual.
Does it include a front door?
Yes. A removable vinyl front door is included with the complete enclosure.
Can the door be removed without taking off the whole enclosure?
Yes. The front door is designed for quick installation and removal, allowing you to open the front of the cab when weather conditions improve.
Does the enclosure provide visibility above the operator?
Yes. Cardinal includes a clear top-view window to preserve upward visibility from inside the cab.
Is the enclosure waterproof?
The vinyl-coated nylon and clear vinyl windows are designed to help protect the operator from rain, snow, wind, and other weather, but this is a flexible aftermarket enclosure rather than a sealed factory cab.
Will this make the cab heated?
No. The enclosure helps retain warmth and block wind, but it does not include a heater.
What is different about Cardinal Model 81-A?
Model 81-A is Cardinal’s shock-cord enclosure configuration for the Bobcat 540, 640, 740, and 840.
Can I buy only a replacement door?
Yes. Replacement doors are available separately if you already have a Cardinal enclosure. We can help match the correct replacement door to your existing enclosure model.
Note: Match your Bobcat machine model, series, and applicable year range to the Cardinal enclosure model below before ordering.

If you have a warranty question or claim, we’ll help connect you with Cardinal Canvas and get the process started.
Keep Working in Bad Weather
The enclosure helps block wind, rain, snow, and cold air from entering the operator area, making open-cab Bobcat machines more comfortable during changing weather.
Maintain Visibility Around the Machine
Clear vinyl windows surround the cab rather than simply closing off the front, with additional top and rear visibility built into the enclosure.
Open the Cab When You Want To
The removable front door and quick-on, quick-off enclosure design give you more flexibility than a permanent cab conversion.
Fit the Enclosure to the Machine
Cardinal uses multiple enclosure patterns instead of trying to stretch one universal cover across every Bobcat ever built. Matching the correct Cardinal model gives you a much more purposeful fit.
