Storing a Dewalt dw734 planer on its side?

I have a Dewalt dw734 planer that I want to put into some sort of 'hideaway' storage.

I have seen a lot of examples of flip top cabinets and have not seen any reported issues caused by having the machine hang upside down, so no apparent problem there.

What I would like to do however is store the planer on its side. The reason for this is I want to make it fit inside of an existing cabinet and if I do the flip top I would need more space than the cabinet allows (no open front or back to allow the machine to swing by).

The specific plan I currently have is something similar to a sewing machine table where the sewing machine folds down into it. Something like the following picture, sorry I couldn't find any pictures where you could see the specifics of how it works.



For those of you who are not familiar, the board just in front of the machine in the picture acts as a support when in this configuration and hinges toward the front giving room for the machine to fold down. The machine is hinged to the rear of the cabinet so it folds forward into the table and is facing the ground when it settles.

In my case I want to fold the planer so it is facing with the 'left' side down. The machine itself would be bolted to a platform that would then be hinged to the cabinet. The planer will not touch the cabinet except through that platform.


Picture sideways on purpose

Would this cause issues with the alignment of the machine over time since the force of gravity is perpendicular to 'normal'? throwing the planer out of square, etc, Any other issues you can foresee?

I feel that I have a pretty good handle on the strength required in the cabinet and hinged components, I am mainly concerned with the effect on the machine itself.

Thanks
