Default Disassembly ? of a Rockwell Vertical Milling machine

I have a Rockwell vertical (knee) milling machine that I need to move
to a shop that doesn't have a driveway and is at the top of a small
incline (grass lawn). I have read somewhere that the shipping weight
of this machine was 800 pounds so it's not real heavy. I would like to
take it apart to make it easier to move. (I'm an amateur and not
familiar with dissassembly of milling machines). I have a photocopy of
the manual which does have an exploded diagram but isn't very useful
otherwise. Anyone here that had/has one of these machines and knows
how to dissassemble it?

Walt
