I'm about to do the 50 hour service this week and have a question.

I believe I have everything ready except while re-reading the manual, I see the front differential fluid amount say 4.75qt's (each.) What does the each mean? I picked up 5 quarts of fluid and now wonder if I needed to double that amount.

Any other things I should be aware of while doing the 50 hour service?

I think the term "each" means if each/both spindles are drained. In back of the service manual wher is specifies type of fluids to use it states Front Axle 90W gear lube - 4.75 qts.

Make sure you check, retorque your wheel lug nuts and the loader mounting bolts.

Where it says '4.75 Quarts, 4.5L Each' it is referring to front Axles and logic says we have One (1) front axle so I think you are good. I cannot see getting more than 4.75 quarts in that entire space either.
