Compact Tractor Break-in Oil Change 50hr vs 200hr

Overview

An owner who ran two CT5555 tractors side-by-side, one with a 200-hour break-in oil change per the manual, one with an early 50-hour change, compares actual Blackstone Labs oil analysis results for both. The video walks through the specific wear-metal numbers (copper at 514 vs. 47, lead, tin, silicone) and draws a practical conclusion. Best for Bobcat CT5000-series owners wrestling with that exact break-in interval question.

Posted by the Gaining Ground channel; the presenter appears to be a private owner sharing hands-on data from his own machines, with no evident commercial affiliation.
