Not trying to be that guy but .. today I guess I am.

That is black by the way... @LittleBill21 said "Gray" the grease has absorbed dust blowing around and so has the cylinder... if kept in the rain outside on a dirt lot that can and will splash up a lot of dirt as well same as on a flat bed down the highway.

I don't think anyone is discounting how dirty it is.. .but was also have no idea if they pulled it over a dirt road to the owners well ex owners new home.

When you start a Kubota Min ex like this does the hr meter flash zero across the screen basically a screen test and then show the hrs? I assume it will show hrs running or not, but I speculate maybe the sales guy put the key in turned it on to see 000000 hrs flash on the screen for long enough for a human to recognize 0 and then claim 0 hrs. Not thinking 0 is way to low a number and why so many 0's but they are in sales not service or using it.

HR meter being so integrated into the display I suspect it has a self test diagnostic display, basically if one of the digits doesn't display a number you know it is failing.

Other possibility I suspect low is that the sales dude saw 0 RPM and mistook it for hrs, or some other 0 on the display... I snap shot of 0 would have been handy.

Anyone assuming that a machine on a sales lot has zero hours on it, in my humble opinion has no business operating a piece of equipment.
They are a bit dangerous to themselves and a lot dangerous to anybody that may be around them
