Does the meter read in tenths like the manual says?

Some do and some don't.

The manual says they do, either mine doesn't or it's broke!

It probably doesn't have a decimal.

No I don't think I have tenths and yes it is a SE.

Early DK had a Tac hour meter based on RPM and the later DK's have a hour meter based on clock time. The book was not updated for the SE, also affects maintenance schedule times. To match the RPM tac time the clock time should be increased by 30 to 50 % for maintenance interval times (100hr oil chg to 150hr).

Am I reading this right? When should I do the 50 hour service, at 50hrs. my clock or what?

Keep it simple. use the time on the tractor.

So the DK40se doesn't have a "tenth" on the hour meter, just whole numbers. The manual is wrong. Good thing we have this forum, no-one to really speak with at Kioti.
