Sometimes you have to remove a tree. It may be dying, it may be too close to your house, or maybe it was just plain ugly. Whatever reason for removing your tree, you will end with a tree stump in the end. These stumps can be difficult to remove. In this video, you will learn how to grind a tree stump
Some people attempt to remove stumps by hand. Others prefer to burn them if allowed in their local area.
However, stump grinding is one of the most effective methods. Stump grinders can be rented for the project. Before you can get started, you will also need a long-sleeved shirt, pants, shoes, and safety gear such as glasses and a hat.
First, you will want to remove obstacles, this includes trimming the stump down a bit. Also remove any rocks or other debris around you. Next, start the grinder and gently lower it onto the stump. You will want to make side-to-side movement with the grinder to cut away at the stump. You may have to dig into the ground a bit and remove any roots that are still intact.
