Any tips for transporting? I know locking mounts on it are supposed to be used.. Can I lay it on its side or will oil leak out?

You can do it without it but the crate keeps it level and lets you strap in to something that will not tip and move as easy as the unit sitting at some funny angle.

Try to not hit unnecessary bumps.
