storing a 748s over winter

I know its being asked many times b4 but there is always new wisdom no doubt so could any1 point me towards the best way to put my 748s to sleep for winter? Just had all the servicing done inc oil changes and will not now be run until the gritting stops, so march probably

I had thought as follows -

raise off floor, reduce pressures by 10psi - will this strain the rear hub as on a single sided paddock stand?
no fuel draining i can think of ?
wd40 all over the engine and parts
cover the exhausts
tsp of oil in the 2 bores, turn over by hand in say 3rd then put sparks back in
oil all pivots, cables and joints
remove battery and put on a trickle charger

anyone think of anything else? or tell me the above is wrong?
