COLUMBIA® Envelopes Expediter(TM) with All Weather Cab Enclosure



Available In Several Configurations For The Ultimate In Application Adaptability

Columbia introduces its new, All Weather Cab Enclosure for the EX21 Expediter. Manufactured in 14 gauge steel with polycarbonate windshield, the cab enclosure provides passenger protection from the elements while operating outdoors. Perfect for larger companies who have multiple buildings at one location, yet still require the maneuverability this narrow aisle passenger vehicle offers.

The Expediter Cab Enclosure option is supplied without. White Steel Doors and Marine Grade Yellow-Colored Vinyl Doors are available to complete the package. Vinyl Enclosure Doors use snap fittings to secure it to the vehicle, and nylon straps with Velcro® to secure in a rolled up position near top. Mr. Scott Breckley, Vice President of Columbia's Sales & Marketing states, "These options bring even more value to our customers by adding all-weather operation capabilities to this truly versatile vehicle. This makes this proven performer a better return on investment than ever before."

The Cab Enclosure accommodates the optional automotive style steering wheel available for the Expediter, and is available in conjunction with Columbia's recently released, four-wheel version of the Expediter. These multiple alternatives meet even the toughest requirements users may have. Mr. Breckley added, "The addition of this package of options enhances the ability of our Dealer network to reach a new segment of the market."

The Expediter Cab Enclosure can even be modified in Columbia's custom shop as the unit enclosed. In this application, the rear deck of the Expediter is open from the operator compartment to permit easy access to equipment and cargo.

The easy-release opening mechanism on the inside of the Optional Steel Doors allows quick and convenient exit from either side of the vehicle. The flush "paddle" handle on the outside of the doors allows easy entry into the cab area without increasing the overall width of the vehicle.

The Expediter Cab Enclosure is available in bright white, with any color optional. The Cab Enclosure top is available in white or for an additional charge, can be provided in black.
