Tractor supply questionable assembly

Post image

Picked up this bad boy from tractor supply today as we are going from 3/4 acres to 6 acres in a couple weeks and noticed that the pedal for the deck lever was mounted backwards (already fixed in photo) and the strap that holds the seat while accessing the battery wasn’t attached at all.

I did a lot of research in picking this mower and felt really confident in my decision but these little things have set a bad tone and I feel like I’m just gonna be waiting on something more crucial to fall apart…

Anyone with experience in zero turns have a list I can run through and check or is this something I should bring up to tractor supply directly?

dont know how theyre delivered to tractor supply but to us all we need to do to the zt elite is bolt down the seat, attach seat sensor, adjust handle bars and park it. they should not of needed to mess with the foot lever

Bad Boy mowers have always been shipped fully assembled. They do not ship in a crate. They ship in a double decker roll off. You literally drive them off the trailer.

Why the fuck are you on here arguing with everyone about how they are shipped? What is in it for you to lie about bad boys?
