Transporting Kapex in UG cart

Well, tomorrow night, I shall be coming home to a Kapex sitting by my door (At least that's the idea).
I already have the UG cart and wings and am ready to add the saw.

My question has to do with transporting the saw which will be an almost daily occurrence in my enclosed trailer. Is it ok
to transport with the saw folded down in the UG cart or to be more clear, with the saw in a more vertical position instead of in
a horizontal/usable position? For the sake of space with my current layout I would much rather be able to store it vertically but
if that's a bad idea I'll rearrange. Thanks guys!
 
It transports fine.

Just remember to rotate the locks and strap it down in all directions.

I found it helpful to add a land yard.  I strap the ext. to the UG and sometimes use the strap to pull the UG because it is for super short dudes like Bob.  [poke]

The Kapex on the UG cart is very stable in a vertical position.  To transport it in a trailer, I would strap the cart to the trailer wall to keep it from moving around.
 
Thanks guys! I just wanted to confirm I wouldn't be causing harm to my saw with it staying in that position for an extended period of time.
 
When you take your Kapex out and set it up for use, you may want to check to make sure the Bevel is on Zero. Mine is usually off a few degrees when I set it up after transport. I just make it a habit to check.
 
Mine always slips a few degrees too. Not only is it strapped I have also padlocked it to the floor of the van as it is so easy to wheel away!
