12.10.4 FELLING TREES, STUMPING NOTICE Do not angle or tilt the blade to carry out heavy-duty operations such as stumping. For trees of diameters up to 100 - 300 mm (4 - 12 in), it is possible to fell the tree by raising the blade high and pushing two or three times. Following this, drive back, then push the tip of the blade into the ground to cut the roots and dig up while pushing. When carrying out this operation, do not hit the tree at high speed or use impact to fell the tree. AE076590 2-35
