I use it on a PM835-S (knee mill). I load and unload it from an HF 4 drawer tool cart I use to keep mill tools nearby. The cart has a ~1 ft wide wooden platform on top (29 1/2" above floor level). To slide the vise off the mill table I lower the knee so the table is about 1/4" higher than the wood. To load it back on, l bring the table about 1/4" lower than the wood.
I do plan to get some kind of cart-and-hoist arrangement one of these days. Lots of things like lathe chucks, mill vise, and rotary table seem to be affected by a gradual increase in the universal gravitational constant as I get older.
