I wondered the same thing too. The only thing i came up with is for the older mag chutes. They used that hole on the decks.
That one.....what hole?
That could be a good possibilty..... I agree!Could it be a 'maufacturing' hole? Maybe something to hang the deck by a fixture to assemble or paint it?
That hole is where the steel mesh cover in the leaf shredder kit bolts to help cover the discharge port.That is what its for.
I thought about that, just wasn't too sure.....Thats for the old school bag rod hanger.
Okay, that makes sense. There are a couple of other unused holes, so I'll probably just leave this one alone. It just looks a little less finished than the others. You can see a hole towards the rear of the deck in the picture above that looks more like it belongs there because it has a flange cast into the material...That hole is where the steel mesh cover in the leaf shredder kit bolts to help cover the discharge port.That is what its for.
