On another forum a newby to chainsaws and backhoes asked how to remove a tree and stump. Tree about 12" dbh. He is getting advice from a member that the best and safest way is to dig around it with the backhoe breaking off roots and then use the backhoe arm to push the tree over. Note this is supposed to be his regular practice and he cuts nothing off the trees first.
