**4.3.2 Making planting pits of the plants**

Size of the planting pits in which plants will be transplanted depends on the mouth size of mechanic mover. Plant pits have to be opened again with the same device while mechanic tree mover removes and transfers plants (Figure 13). Size of the pit from which plant is removed and into which it will be planted is significant in terms of adaptation to new place, being affected form strong winds and regular root development.

In the transplantation made by mechanic tree mover, firstly planting pit is opened and irrigation must be done as a rule; because when tree mover transfers the plant, no time should be wasted and plants should be protected from damage caused by time. This is why each time mechanic tree mover comes to the campus, planting pits were opened and then the plants that would be transplanted were brought.
