Cyclone is a great machine! You'll need to get into the back box (hopefully they have that key) to lay it down. I'm a big fan of just using a pool noodle on the top part of the backbox in transit, but moving pads, whatever you've got. Run some stretch wrap around it if you like (i've done it with and without). Go get a 3/8(I'm preteen sure it's 3/8) ratchet to get those legs off. then take it home!
The batteries will be in the backbox once you take off the translate. they're just standard AA batteries. Check for corrosion.
