hi, unfortunately l seemed to have gone over a tree stump. I have. Twin blade Mountfield 1538h -sd ride on. The left side blade now digs into the ground. I have ordered a new blade shaft for that side but noticed were this bolts to the deck that one of the three holes is slightly higher than the other two. How do l repair the deck. Is it a case of using a big hammer. Thanks Andrew

    I wouldn't do anything until you have the new parts available.  Check how they fit and then consider any adjustments you may need to make.  If you do need to realign the bolt hole put a piece of timber over the section you plan to hit, and refit the bolt, in order to avoid deforming the deck.
