Meade standard field tripod for LX200 12" classic

Hi all,
This could be a dumb question. My apologies if it is.
I have a Meade standard field tripod with an eq wedge. I also have an LX200 12" classic scope with fork mount (without a tripod). My question is, can the standard field tripod manage the weight of the 12" OTA on fork mount? I think more than the weight, I am more concerned about the length of the fork+OTA vs spread of the tripod legs. Can you guys advise if at all it is a sane idea to try?
Thanks.
