Finally got to ride my L4330 today, what does the "wrench" symbol mean?

Hopefully nothing as drastic as the warp core is getting ready to self-eject or the fusion reactor has gone into self-destruct mode.... :)

There was also the following words just above the 513.X hours reading: "Service Inspect". I don't have the manual yet (assuming the owner has it) and won't get it until Tuesday if he does.

Practiced with the FEL a bit, got a feel for it, first tractor I've used that had one. Even got to use it to move a +100 lb tool chest from the shop back room to the bed of my truck (previous owner left it, I'll have to get it back to him).

Getting back to the wrench light, what does it take to turn it off and more important: is there something wrong with it?

Thanks,

Could be a service reminder light. I have seen some equipment that do that when it's time for oil change.

It is a maintenance reminder which as I remember from my L5030 goes on every fifty hours, you do service which will be outlined in your manual at 50, 100, 150, 200 and so on. The L5030 is very similar to the L40, so I used this on mine along with the manual. To turn it off press and hold both buttons for about six seconds. Maybe this will get you by until your manual comes as there is a bit more fluid change frequency to the L30 Series than L40.

Press and hold which two buttons?

I have to check with the former owner, I think he did the service at the 500 hour mark, but I need to check with him. Since he has (had) two Kubotas, he may be confused as to which one he actually serviced.

Thanks,

"Display Mode" in hour mode + "Travel Speed", here is a video of the Intellipanel on the L40 which explains it at about 7 minutes or so, L30 and L40 has some of the same functions, so it may be worth watching the whole thing.
