Abstract
A stump removal tool for boring around a stump at ground level. The stump removal tool includes an elongate member having a first end, a second end and outer peripheral wall extending between the first and second ends. The elongate member has a generally circular cross-section taken transversely to a longitudinal axis of the elongate member. A connecting portion is attached to and extends away from the first end of the elongate member. The connecting portion is removably coupled to a power tool. A plurality of teeth is attached to an outer surface of the peripheral wall. The teeth are spaced from each other and are positioned in a pattern extending from the first end to the second end. The elongate member is attached to the power tool and rotated such that the teeth may be used for boring through a stump.

A stump removal tool for removably coupling to a power tool for rotating said tool, said tool comprising:
- an elongate member having a first end, a second end and outer peripheral wall extending between said first and second ends, said elongate member having a generally circular cross-section taken transversely to a longitudinal axis of said elongate member, a connecting portion being attached to and extending away from said first end of said elongate member, said connecting portion being removably coupled to said power tool;
- a plurality of teeth being attached to an outer surface of said peripheral wall, said teeth being spaced from each other and being positioned in a pattern extending from said first end to said second end;
- wherein said elongate member is attached to said power tool and rotated such that said teeth may be used for boring through a stump:
- a rod being attached to said second end of said elongate member and being generally co-axial with a longitudinal axis of said elongate member, said rod being threaded;
- and
- a cover having an end wall and a peripheral wall extending away from said end wall, said end wall having a hole therein for receiving said rod such that said cover is extendable over said second end of said elongate member, a fastener being positioned on said rod between a free end of said rod and said end wall such that said cover is removably attached to said rod.
A stump removal tool for removably coupling to a power tool for rotating said tool, said tool comprising:
- an elongate member having a first end, a second end and outer peripheral wail extending between said first and second ends, said elongate member having a generally circular cross-section taken transversely to a longitudinal axis of said elongate member, a connecting portion being attached to and extending away from said first end of said elongate member, said connecting portion being removably coupled to said power tool, said outer surface of said elongate member being threaded;
- a cover being positioned over said second end of said elongate member, said cover having a domed surface extending away from said elongate member;
- a plurality of teeth being attached to an outer surface of said peripheral wall;
- and
- wherein said elongate member is attached to said power tool and rotated such that said teeth may be used for boring through a stump.
A stump removal tool for removably coupling to a power tool for rotating said tool, said tool comprising:
- an elongate member having a first end, a second end and outer peripheral wall extending between said first and second ends, said elongate member having a generally circular cross-section taken transversely to a longitudinal axis of said elongate member, a connecting portion being attached to and extending away from said first end of said elongate member, said connecting portion being removably coupled to said power tool;
- a rod being attached to said second end of said elongate member and being generally co-axial with a longitudinal axis of said elongate member, an annular shoulder extending around said rod and abutting said second end of said elongate member, said rod being threaded;
- a cover having an end wall and a peripheral wall extending away from said end wall, said cover being positionable over said rod, said end wall having a hole therein for receiving said rod such that said cover is extendable over said second end of said elongate member, a plurality of ball bearings being positioned around said rod and being positioned between said rod and said cover, a washer being positioned between said ball bearings and said end wall such that said ball bearings are between said washer and said annular shoulder, a fastener being positioned on said rod between a free end of said rod and said end wall such that said cover is removably attached to said rod, said end wall being generally dome shaped, wherein said cover may rotate with respect to said elongate member;
- a plurality of teeth being attached to an outer surface of said peripheral wall, said teeth being arranged in sets of teeth extending around said rod, said sets being spaced from each other and extending from said first end to said second end of said elongate member, said sets positioned nearer said first end having a greater number of teeth therein than said sets positioned nearer said second end of said elongate member;
- and
- wherein said elongate member is attached to said power tool and rotated such that said teeth may be used for boring through a stump.
