maintenance intervals for changing the engine oil. The
LCD will alternately flash, “CHG” ; “OIL” and the recorded
hours for five minutes after every 50 hours of recorded
operation. The maintenance interval lasts for two hours
(from 50-52, 100-102, 150-152, etc.). The LCD will flash as
described for five minutes every time the tractor’s engine
is started during this maintenance interval. Follow the oil
