This won't buff out! HAMMER TIME!

What happens here

The farmer removes a bent red guard that protects the mower deck. He compares the old, severely bent piece with a new, straight replacement, demonstrating the extent of the damage. He notes that the new part includes a small stamped label, likely indicating a part number. To address other bent components, he uses a large pipe wrench to apply leverage and bend a structural part of the deck's frame back into its correct position. He works slowly, taking small adjustments, to achieve the desired alignment.

Goal: Replace the damaged guard and straighten the mower deck's frame.
