Guys your right! Thank you!! I looked at a picture of my last Kubota with the same wells ag canopy and its mounted with the brackets in the front..
Now I'm wondering if I should make the dealer change it when they bring me some more hydraulic fluid that the level was barely touching the stick and noticed the front end oil is low as its not flowing out of the top plug like its supposed too either!

I would let the dealer reposition the top. They were in a hurry to get the tractor to you. Honest mistake. They will make it right.

Looks like you have it figured out now.
Yea I knew something wasn't right.. I've spent the last 2 days going over the tractor and tightening everything I could see.
Even put a coat of wax on it while its clean,im sure some of you will make fun of me for that but when you spend almost 40K you want to keep it looking good for as long as possible..

No reason to second guess the wax job, I wish I took better care of my paint. I tell myself the dirt protects them from the sun.

Canopy positioning is often easier with 2 people. Soldier 'A' stands on the foot-plate supporting the front of the canopy while Soldier 'B' reworks the bracketry from the rear/sides.
Poor attention to detail from the dealerships Workshop Supervisor (especially the oil levels) and the salesperson who should have stood back and checked the canopy visually. This isn't "Rocket Surgery"
Run the grease-gun over it asap too.

Maybe it was two salesmen who installed the canopy.
Sounded like it when he said that looked normal to him and that its just personal preference he guessed.
Had some good weather today and decided to move it myself.. Looks like it should now plus I know it's done right and tight. Thanks guys :drink:

That looks MUCH better. Can we expect to see any action shots of your cool new tractor?
