A: Yes the blades will stay engaged when you go in reverse.

Q: Hi Joe,
I recently purchased this machine.. Just curious if the mower is missing an anti scalp wheel in the back of the deck? by Mario Marcano from New Jersey on July 01, 2016
A: Sorry for the missing wheel can you send me a picture of where it is missing to service@mowersdirect.com. by Jose, Product Expert
Q: Is this mower assembled and ready to start. by Howard from Alabama on May 14, 2016
A: Howard - all of the riding mowers we sell are shipped in the original factory crating, and would require some degree of minor set-up before you could use it. by Jose, Product Expert
Q: In the specs under engine it says 2 year warranty, near the end overview heading/ says 3 year warranty. Is there an hour limitation and is it 2 or 3 years? by Dale from Oklahoma on February 10, 2016
A: Dale - there is a warranty on the engine, and a warranty on the rest of the mower. The 2-year warranty in the "engine" box is the warranty on the engine and it's components - 2 years. The 3 year statement on the bottom of the page is for the balance of the mower (other the engine and it's components). The 3 year warranty on the mower also excludes "consumable" parts like belts, tires, filters, etc. by Jose, Product Expert

Another great quality is the 46-inch fabricated (welded) steel mower deck which is made from 11-gauge steel. The patented SmartJet™ high-pressure deck wash out system makes it simple to clean out the underside of the mower deck once you finish mowing.
This Cub Cadet RZT L46 FAB offers a comfortable ride with a Cub Comfort™ deluxe high-back seat featuring spring suspension, which will make the ride more comfortable especially on wide bumpy areas. And of course. the built in cup holder for beverages of your choice.

Great Mower
Works great. Runs well. It does not mow in reverse which is a disappointment. Does not seem to be 100% zero turn. Having issues with setting up the Bluetooth app.
Pros:Easy To Use, High Quality
Cons:Expensive, Bluetooth difficult to set up, Does not mow in reverse

Anthony,
You may want to give the folks at Cub Cadet a call at 1-877-428-2349 for help in setting up their app. Please have the serial number of your mower handy when you call them, in case they ask for it.
I have only limited use of my right arm so uncrating took a bit longer than normal but was accomplished without problems. Assembly was easy and adjustment was no problem.
Learning to steer a straight course with only one hand is a challenge but I am slowly beginning to master. Mower has several nice features for a machine in this price range and seems well constructed. the order was shipped quickly and arrived on time and without damage. All and all well pleased.
Pros:Easy To Use, Features, Price, I'd Buy It Again

Top Of The Line Product
The product was great. It does a great job on my 4 acres of grass.it has good power even on high grass.
the one thing that i have a concern with is, you need to have some rubber pads on floor. That way your feet wouldn't try to slip when you are trying to get off of mower, thanks..other than that it is a #. One mower.. The pads would help for safety..
Mower arrived on a pallet, took 1.5 hrs to get off and I'm mechanically inclined. Im not happy with the cheap plastic seat. The tire pressure was double of listed max pressure, I almost slid into my canal due to tires being so inflated, so be sure to check!
Mower starts easy and is easy to operate, the muffler is ok and isn't too loud, I use ear muffs to save ear drums! I recommend ear protection always! Mower DOES NOT MOW IN REVERSE CONTRARY TO LISTING!!! I do not like this and find it aggravating to keep engaging blades.
Mow or cut height is great and it does cut nice and goes threw grass like butter, the cub cadet blades are very good for price.
I think it's a good machine although I've only used it 3x, I have a ride on old mower as well and it cuts better on slope than Cub Cadet? I'm going to try lower tire pressure or different tires.
If I'm able to update after summer in Florida use, I will!

Curt,
I am sorry to hear about the issues you are experiencing with your mower when it comes to mowing in reverse. This model does keep the blades engaged in reverse, which allows you to mow in reverse. If this has not been resolved, I would strongly recommend that you contact a certified repair center who will repair your unit under warranty at no cost to you. I've included some information at the bottom of this to help. If you need anything else, please do not hesitate to give us a call and we will do our very best to assist. Thank you for your business and happy mowing!

Upgraded from an Ariens 34" 14hp zero turn. Purchased the mulch kit for the RZT L46. Excellent cutting performance and smooth handling. Heavy enough that the tires keep traction even on steeper slopes where my Ariens struggled. I'm finding that the 46" deck is perfect for my 1/2 acre lawn but a little too big for mowing around trees or tight spaces.
The ride is very comfortable and the 23HP Kohler engine is more than powerful enough without being too loud. In fact the mower is almost too fast at full speed. The handles are well made and not hard at all to control when compared with other zero turns. Also I'm 6'4" and I like the fact that I can actually sit on the mower with my legs and feet in a comfortable position (unlike my old Ariens model).
Another nice feature is that you can disengage both wheels from the transmission and push the mower in neutral. Makes moving the mower extremely easy. I doubt if you can find a better quality zero turn mower with these features for the price.
Just a word of caution regarding shipping. The unit shipped in a wooden crate built around a pallet which you have to saw and crowbar apart to remove the mower. Be careful not to damage the mower when removing. The ability to disengage the wheels and push it in neutral turned out to be necessary to get it off the pallet once I had it on my driveway.
The only negative I can see with this mower is that the blades will not turn when in reverse under normal operation unless you set the key to "reverse mode". It should have the ability to mow in reverse normally as an override option.

Has Anyone Had This Problem?
I got my cub cadet zero turn mower four years ago and I loved it, using the bagger was not as good as I would have wanted but otherwise it was great. Until last Friday when my husband was using it to mow and tuned it off to come in the house for a minute leaving it in the back yard.
In less than five minutes the mower burst into flames and we had to call the fire department to put out the fire. It burned the seat completely and the rear tires were melted, the engines was scorched. We have no idea what happened that caused it to burst into flames. Has anyone had this experience? We have three cub cadets in the family and have all loved them. I would appreciate any input.

Great Mower, Check All Bolts!
Awesome mower all-in-all with a few issues. I downsized property and sold my Kubota ZD28 72" cut zero turn mower. I loved the ease of the zero turn, so I bought the 46" Cub Cadet, which was rated very high. So first mow, the blade spindle bolt came loose and the right side blade and shaft fell out.
Found all the parts in yard, put it back together, and checked every bolt on the mower. The tractor portion was fine, but every bolt on the 46" fab deck was loose. The other spindle was backing out, the anti-scalp wheels etc. if you buy this mower, go ahead and buy a bottle of Loctite and torque every bolt.

Satisfied-but
The mower came very quickly and was unbelievably crated without a scratch or dent. The only problem with delivery was that the trucking company was given a 5 year old, disconnected phone number from pay pal to contact us instead of the one we furnished?????
The mower went together fairly well and mows like a dream. The only operational problems are:
(1) You must keep constant pressure on the drive levers otherwise they will snap back to neutral. If you let go with one hand and keep pressure on the other, you can get in trouble real quickly.
(2) The other problem is it only crawls in reverse. The drive levers will not go in the slots to increase the reverse speed.
(3) The mulching kit that I purchased separately is made of plastic and certainly does not seal very well. Others have complained about this.

Going In Circles
I have just under 2 acres and about 25 trees. My previous mower (Husqvarna 48" cut 24hp Kawasaki) did just fine, but I got tired of backing up all the time for trees. Use to take me about 1 hr, 40 mins to do the whole thing. Got that cut down by at least 20 minutes. The Cub goes really fast in fwd and cuts well. Scalps a little bit in a couple places because of the grade of my yard. ZTRs take a little practice, but after a while, you can steer it without thinking.
I've mowed about 5 times, have just under 6 hrs and did the initial oil change. Drain plug and filter are very accessible. Don't really like the battery placement, but not a big deal. Deck and mower seems well built and well designed. Only complaint is that there is no suspension other than the springs for the seat, so I get bounced around a lot. Air suspension seat would be nice. Got it dialed in for going straight, not so much for reverse.
Once I get that figured out, I'll be happy. ZTRs will tear up your yard on zero turns, just the way it is. I've been doing Y-turns which is a little easier on the turf. I also put a trailer hitch on the back and will be using it for moving boats for my boat business (under 19'). So far so good. I give it an A overall. It's not a commercial grade mower, but for the price, it's a lot of mower for the money.

"I went with the lift gate service, and the delivery guy was great and helped my drop the mower in front of my garage. It came on a full size semi, so keep that in mind if you have a small driveway. Took about an hour to un-crate and get the mower ready to fire up. Just had to hook up the battery, install the seat, and bolt on the control levers. No problems with Mowers Direct, fast service and delivery."
I was very pleased with the excellent service your company provided upon the purchase and delivery of my mower. Your company stayed in touch with me sending confirmation and receipt immediately after purchase.
The trucking company called a day ahead letting me know when the mower would arrive. They called back to confirm time. A friendly and helpful driver unloaded the mower arriving exactly as he promised.
This was my first time ordering such a large item online. Your company will certainly be recommended highly by me!! Great job.....and very happy with my new mower.
