saha'
N-, mag-
To tap a rubber tree (in order to make the sap (latex) flow); to make the initial groove and to make subsequent cuts.
In rubber tapping a diagonal cut is made on one side of the tree trunk. The initial cut is a groove that should not cut into the cambium. When the sap has stopped flowing a narrow shaving is cut from the lower edge of the tapping groove to renew the latex flow.
