Kubota clock

[RSF1952]

I was wondering if any other users have seen this glich. I have a 4060 with 14 hours. I was using it yesterday
and noticed the clock was only showing minutes. The hour function was blank.This occurred between 12 and 1
p.m. . From 1 p.m. on, the clock was normal. Shutting down and restarting had no effect. I have not yet been able
to determine if this is a problem with only the 12 o'clock hour,or was this a one time fluke. I welcome all comments

You have clock's AM/PM designations reversed.

Read your Owner's Manaual and reset the clock. (Resetting the time takes more fooling than it should.)

Thank you for the reply. How does resetting the clock explain why only the minutes was showing? I guess I don't
understand why it should matter if it is AM or PM

Because it is a 24 hour/military time clock. Civilian time resets every 12 hours, military time resets once every 24 hours.

From midnight to 1:00 AM, the hour is "00".

One enlistment in the A/AF/N or Marines will make this clear........

That makes perfect sense. I will look in the manual , and reset

Or, you can get your Amatuer Radio operators license
Somewhat less commitment.

I have often wondered in this modern world that runs 24 hours a day, we bother with the AM PM thing anyway.

I think the Puddle Pirates use military time too as does much of Europe.

When all else fails read the manual. Looking in the owners manual revealed that the clock is only
designed to display the time up to 11:59 after which the clock reverts to 00:00 and starts re-counting.
There is no way to display conventional time. Seems a little to silly to me. I can't believe it would have been
that complicated to design a clock with normal time display. Oh well.

You have a Japanese tractor brand, built in Japan.
