I will never forget the club member who was warned to wait about cutting off the ugly surface root. Of course she didn't and the entire rootball fell off, leaving her with a largish cutting! Matt of course is correct in encouraging prudence. Examine the entire rootball carefully before removing such a large root. It it has a great deal of feeder roots, it's best to wean the tree off of it.
