Start of First Cut
Figure 3-1
Refer to Figure 3-1:
9. Slowly retract swing cylinder (#2) to make a cross cut
across the top of the stump. Approximately 1" below
the top of the stump if the stump is hard, and up to 4"
if the wood is very soft or rotten.
10. Once the cutting wheel has made a full swing across
the stump, extend lift cylinder (#1) to make another
cut and start back across the stump.
11. Continue swinging the cutting wheel back and forth
across the stump and extending the lift cylinder at the
start of each new pass until depth of cut is around 10"
deep in the stump.
12. Skip step 13 if stump is small enough to remove
without repositioning the tractor.
13. Fully retract lift cylinder (#1), raise hitch up several
inches, and drive tractor backward to a new location
to continue removing chips from the stump.
14. Repeat steps 8-13 until top of stump has been
completely removed to the 10" depth as shown in
Figure 3-4.
15. Raise hitch up several inches and drive forward to
reposition the cutting teeth just above the near side
of remaining stump.
16. Repeat steps 8-15 until the stump has been removed
approximately 10" below the ground as shown in
Figure 3-5.
