...there are a few problems with mine as well. I can't get the door closed with the bagger on.
...the bagger is expensive and is further complicated by the fact that if you put the bagger on the back (that's where it goes) ya has to put a "weight kit" on the front, otherwise when if ya start off like a jack rabbit the doggone thing could flip over backwards which could be somewhat disconcerting.
...a safety feature on your mower is that it won't back up with the blade engaged without ya pushing a button on the console (I think) Keeps ya from backing over a kid or a pet. The zero turn will leap backwards at the slightest encourangement by the driver. Ya gotta be really careful with it.
...The reason I bought this thing was that I am cutting about three acres of grass with a little more than half an acre being bagged (zoysa grass). If ya don't the "thatch" will kill all the grass. The mulching option or just blowing it out the side will work, but ya have to cut the grass every four days. Im more of a once every ten days guy.

Liberals are like a "Slinky". Totally useless, but somehow ya can't help but smile when you see one tumble down a flight of stairs!
