Yardy add-on could limit movement

It would appear to me that modifying the Yardy would be a mistake because:

l You would no longer be able to tilt it far enough to balance the load when you moved it.

l You may not be able to move it up a slope because the added foot would dig in to the hill when you tilted it to move it.

Better check it out before the city wastes $500,000.
