Good Idea Hama anychance with your conections you could get an Arbor-trolly that we could try and then send on to the next Arbtalk member... Im not joking as this idea of yours has many applications -
Wow! 9 days from it being done to him being done! must be some sort of record

I've got a 252 and its bullet proof It has got floors IMO and they are that at around 9 ft long it nedds a fair bit of room. It can be pushed without the engine running which is a plus but if the wheels are locked then moving it around in small spaces puts alot of stress on your back , it should have been made with drive on each wheel rather than having to disconect drive by pulling the pin in the centre of the wheel hub out, which isnt always an easy thing to do because sometimes the pin is under load and the machine has to be driven back and fourth to allow it to be wiggled out, there is a tendency to use the cutter head to pivot the machine around as already said but this puts the bearing cases under stress and can crack them. Im tempted to put mine on electric trackes from a mewp as this would make it shorter narrower and easier to move around

I wouldnt worry about the LA just keep the pictures to hand as for the wires I would do as you said and just keep the pieces small and crack on, no pun intended

Hi Yaffle! I've got a pair of ramps that came with the Iveco when I bought it but have never plucked up the courage to use them without a winch to assist. have you ever tracked the stumpy up a set?
-
Daisy chain a strop with a figure of 8 attatched to the condemed tree put the running end of a second rope through it and then have the groundy act as slack tender, as you climb slide the strop up but DONT leave any pegs or snags If the tree go's then the groundy lets go.

Have you bought one?

I was just the same at his age, but as said above wait until he grabs a dead bit or tries swinging about like that in a poplar . You want to thank your lucky stars that he did'nt fall out while you were egging him on and filming him with the cam corder
