Yes Rich your correct they are countersunk heads.

[Rich2484]

How mangled are they?

 

Could cut a straight groove in them and use a large flat head driver to put them in?

 

Not an answer that most will go with. But for getting out the poo a bit of hill billy fix.

would get them off but would need to be re torqued afterwards. think best to phone around in the morning then failing that Monday morning shouldnt be an issue getting some, just will waste a couple of hours but lesson learnt

Just a little suggestion, buy a tin of coppaslip, stops the bolts seizing, then bladder on wd40 when removing

What chipper is it? Aren't they tightened up with the nuts on the back? As long as you can stop them spinning you should still be able to torque them I would have thought, and replace them ASAP. Definitely don't use anything but the correct tensile bolts - I've got a feeling they are 10.9 which is over and above anything you might find off the shelf. I doubt you will find the correct profile at a lower tensile strength though. If a blade comes loose as a result of incorrect bolt strength you will end up with a massive bill (and potential serious injury!).
