I have changed the blades a few times on several different Bush Hog brand mowers, and they all came off the same. The bolt is special made it is tapered and it has a key and slot affair. You do not have to hold it or have someone hold it because of this keyed bolt and slott on the bracket the blade goes on. I take the nut off that you are talking about, get a 2x2 piece of wood and drive the bolts out. I find a dry spot and block my machine up and crawl under to put them back in. I have done this myself without any help but it sure is easier and quicker with two people putting them back on. I guess I am lucky I have never had to torch any off. If you have a good stout hoist you can chain onto the tongue and stand the machine upright as I have seen some do. I do not have the facilities to do it this way, and think I can probably put a set on my ten footer about as quick as I can get it rigged up and lifted and secured to work on.
