I've loaded M's on everything from a an old homemade equipment trailer to car trailer to GN to step deck. I always load a single tractor front ways but I have a few points to make regardless.
1)Never load alone. Have someone around to keep an eye on the things you can't see from the seat.
2)Take it slow. Especially if it's you first time. It's a little disconcerting, only experience will make you comfortable with it. Don't be afraid take a few shots at the ramps. If you get halfway up and don't like the placement, roll back and start over. Also give yourself plenty of run at the trailer to get the tractor straight with it.
3)When unloading, backwards or forward. Run it all the way down at idle. Don't freewheel down the ramps.
4)Don't let these guys scare you. The biggest danger is falling off the side of the trailer or the ramps. But you'll be fine if you're careful.
