Many of us "slide" down, or "slip", in these small tractor seats and it sure is annoying. My B7800 has done that since new and even a factory recall and new seat didn't help much. When I mow the lawn pulling a 7' mower, I slide down and have to pull myself up multiple times. Well, I might have found a fix for that.
I pulled a leg muscle and decided a small throw pillow on the seat might help my leg and it did. Then, I immediately noticed I didn't slide down in the seat. Maybe a little after 30 minutes but nothing like before. Maybe it's the pillow, maybe the fabric or maybe sitting higher changes the slipping dynamics. I don't know but it works for me and stops maybe 95% of my slipping.
It's just a simple pillow I think we bought for the dog. It appears to be small lumpy foam inside and is a slightly thicker fabric. It may or my not work for you so this is FYI only. Picture below.
