From mincha time on, he should bring his things down (the sukkah was always on the roof) in honor of the Yom Tov of Shemini Atzeres.   Gemara:   Question: What if he doesn’t have anything to bring down?  Challenge: How did he eat there for seven days if he doesn’t have anything there?  Resolution: The question was: What if he doesn’t have a home to bring things into [and staying in the sukkah in Eretz Yisroel may be a problem of Bal Tosif]?   Rabbi Chiya bar Ashi: He can break open 4x4 tefachim of schach*.  Rabbi Yehoshua ben Levi: He can light a lamp there.  These two opinions are in agreement with each other, only that Rabbi Yehoshua ben Levi is in Eretz Yisroel where the sukkah is no longer needed and Rabbi Chiya bar Ashi is in Bavel.  Challenge: A lamp in the sukkah signifies that one no longer cares for the sukkah in a small sukkah, but in a large sukkah where one is not afraid that it will burn down, one can bring in a lamp even on Yom Tov?  Resolution: In a large sukkah he can bring the pots and pans into the sukkah as taught by Rava (24.1): Drinking vessels may remain in the sukkah but eating vessels should remain outside of the sukkah.  _________ * Rashash: Although airspace of 3 tefachim invalidates the sukkah, here this person might cover the hole with something, thus the hole must be 4 tefachim.
