Apex on its side question...

[o's srx]

I was just wondering how long can I keep the sled tipped up on its side? I don't have anyway of suspending it from the ceiling to change the track and put extrovert drives on it.
Or is this not recommended at all for any time period.

Get a long block of wood(4"x6") with a slot cut in it. Works great. I would not put it on its side.

I have left it on either side for weeks. The oil has always stayed in the tank on mine.

The only thing I have heard is to lay it oil tank down if possible.

No probs laying the sled on either side if it is not running.

The only thing I have heard is to lay it oil tank down if possible.

That's what I heard too. Tilt it to the right side (passenger side if it were a car)....

Put it on the right side or oil tank side. If you put it on the left side gas can siphon out of the vent tube and make a mess in the garage and will melt the glue that holds the sound proofing down. Learned the hard way. I believe the Manual also says right side.

I have left it on the side all day for a track change. I put a pad under the side to keep from scratching. It also helps if you support the handle bar off the floor to balance and keep it from rolling too far over.
