How to manually remove the stump?

Manually removing a tree stump can be a challenging task, but it can be done with the right tools and techniques. Here are the basic steps to manually remove a tree stump:

1. Clear the area around the stump: Remove any rocks, debris, or vegetation around the stump to make it easier to work around.

2. Cut the stump down to ground level: Use a chainsaw or handsaw to cut the stump as close to the ground as possible. This will make it easier to remove the rest of the stump.

3. Dig around the stump: Use a shovel to dig around the stump, exposing the roots as much as possible. Dig at least 2 feet away from the stump to make sure you get most of the roots.

4. Cut the roots: Use a root saw or loppers to cut the roots as close to the stump as possible. This will help loosen the stump and make it easier to remove.

5. Loosen the stump: Use a pry bar or shovel to loosen the stump and pry it out of the ground. If the stump is too heavy to lift, you may need to use a winch or come-along to pull it out.

6. Fill the hole: Fill the hole with soil or compost and pack it down to prevent settling.

Note: that manual stump removal can be a time-consuming and physically demanding process, especially for larger stumps. Consider hiring a professional tree service like Tree Rangers, if you have multiple stumps or if the stump is too large or difficult to remove manually.
