How to get a Kapex 120 and UG frame in and out of a van?

[Milwaukee is my ex]

Hi all, I’ve just bought a Kapex 120 and UG frame (wings to follow) for work on site. After realising the weight of it, I’m now wondering how to get the thing in and out of my van. It’s the most awkward thing to try and lift.
Anyone got any recommendations?
Surely taking the saw off the frame every time it comes in or out the van is not what Festool intended. Besides, it’s not less heavy when broken down, just less awkward.
Thank in advance.

When taking mine out of my truck I roll it to the edge of the tailgate and lay it on its back so the handle you normally use to push it around is at the very edge of the tailgate. I grab the handle with my left hand and as the wheels get to the edge of the tailgate, I grab the bottom next to the adjustment foot with my left right hand, roll it off the tailgate and mostly gently lower it to the ground.

I'll admit that now that I'm north of 60 and my current truck is even taller than my previous ones, it is getting more difficult. I pull the trailer more often than I used to now since it has a ramp door and I can walk in and out of the trailer instead of climbing in and out of the truck.

Hopefully you have a van with a low loading height. In my Transit, for the few times I have transported mine (I didn't buy the UG Stand until after I pretty much retired, I would roll it to the door and turn it backwards, get into the van and pull it up into the van. I would transport it lying down, although if I had to do it regularly I would install tie down points and strap it against the storage shelves.
