I suppose OSHA may frown on drilling holes in the columns,
Well it is OSHA regs of course but just as important is a compromised ROPS brings all sorts of liability issues (trial lawyers) if someone gets hurt or worse killed, while operating the machine that has a "compromised" ROPS.
Also it diminishes the value of the machine to any purchaser that can see it has a damaged ROPS. I know I would use a damaged ROPS as a negotiating tool to get the sales price down.
