The tool of choice: Electric Sawsall.

A real time saver when it comes to cutting thru a large root mass. I cut off about 4" in length of the lower portion of the root ball. I sawed it straight across in the position that the tree would be sitting in the pot. That way the flat bottom can sit on the bottom of the pot and add stabability.
