my 30 ft. 1020 reel was bent by a 14 ft. snow drift.
tried lots of things , none worked
what worked was , locked the high spot to up .
used a thin dics grinder and , and cut a slot in top of tube, a littl at a time .
it just fell into place, i think , one cut 1/3 the way , around the top,
then , just another zip on the very top,
weld it back up
good to go
