Drilling Holes in Deck

[Skier125]

I want to mount a bracket to the back of my mower's deck it is a lesco wb 48. So I was wondering if theirs any major reason why i shouldn't drill the holes. The holes will be were the belts are or were the blades are. I need the brackets to attach the the striping kit. Should I do this or try mount on the back near the operator instead which is a better idea.
Thanks for the help I wanted to check first so i only drill once.

I would put the heads of the bolts on the under side as the heads will not catch grass build up like a nut and bolt sticking down would.
