Moving a grevillea

OK - I'm dreading a little the answers I might get to this question, but I'll ask anyway!
I have a grevillea arenaria - about 4 ft tall, planted about 2 years ago. Lovely plant.
Thing is, its found itself in the wrong spot in the garden.
In short, I need to move it. I have a second location for it that's similar to the original, so its not shifting drastically from one set of conditions to another.
But what I'm wondering is if there's a hope I can get this plant moved and have it live - and what I can do to give it a real chance of doing so.
Should I prune it a touch before I dig it up? Should I, as I read somewhere, trim any damaged roots underwater? Should I fertilise when I move the plant to the new site?
What can I do to give it the best chance of survival.
