Default Transporting a Unisaw


I just bought a 3HP Unisaw from an estate, a nice upgrade from my
contractor's saw except that it needs a better fence. I'll be
transporting it 15-20 miles to its new home this weekend on a utility
trailer.

After removing the fence rails, extension wings, etc., I'm wondering
whether it would be preferable to transport the machine upright or
upside-down. In terms of stress on the internals, would one
orientation be better than the other, or am I fretting too much over
the risk of damage from the trip? It isn't as though I'm going to be
climbing boulders or traveling on plank roads.

Any advice from the other cabinet saw owners here?
