Add at least 2" per end or 4" overall to the diagonal measurement.

That depends on the actual log. A log with a larger amount of taper would only have sapwood on one end, the narrow end.
Do you have any of their products?
No.....
Also do you think they would work as well with squared timbers?
Yes.
Do you think an ATV would be strong enough or do you still think that I will need a tractor and the larger tractor arch to move the dimensions and weights that you described?
I don't have any experience with an ATV, so I can't give you any advice on that.
