Optical Tube Assembly (OTA):
Fully Extended - 1400 mm
Collapsed for Transport - 925 mm (1025 mm with packing at each end)
OTA Diameter - 365 mm
OTA Dimension including frame for extension rods - 400 mm Max
Focuser Assembly - 125 mm protrusion from face of OTA
Base:
Height - 820 mm
Diameter - 640 mm
Packing Foam Blocks:
Length - 495 mm
Height - 245 mm
Depth - 145 mm (a 95mm moulded recess is cut into the depth for the OTA)
This scope is a heavy lump, but I can move the OTA / Base in stages and then reassemble without any assistance. Hope these dimensions help.
