REMOVING STUMPS

7.1
Remove all loose pieces of wood, stones, wire and other debris from the area before
beginning stump removal.
7.2
Wind direction should be considered, as it influences the direction in which dust and wood
chips are directed.
7.3
Dig away the earth and remove any stones near the tree stump that may interfere with your
work. Check that the ground is free of foreign objects, such as electrical cables, barbed wire,
etc.
7.4
Cut or trim the stump as low to ground as required using a power saw.

Never leave controls when the cutting wheel is rotating and stop the engine when machine is
left unattended.
