When I read these stories I wonder how the last-mile delivery guys stay in business in these areas. Anyone who would drop a crate in the street and just leave needs to find another area of employment.
As others have mentioned, the factory blades are not much more than window dressing. Having a couple that are poorly made would not be surprising. With both machines being delivered by folks who seem to know little about doing such things my instinct would be to return them. You can chase 'traumatic impact' caused issues in a machine for along time before you give up. I would skip the effort but, that's me.
Call Grizzly and purchase direct making them well aware of your repeated problems. Sellers cannot fully control delivery streams but it would be good to make them aware. I would be tempted to pick up the machine at the freight terminal. That way if there is again any sign of "oops!" you can just refuse it right there. I'm sorry you are in an area that doesn't have qualified freight handlers. We read about a fair amount of that on here and it sometimes seems to be regional.
