I just bought a B1550 and am waiting for a manual. I am planning on running Rotella in it? What do you use?

I'll run Rotella when I'm out of warranty - my 50 hour just filled it up with the Kubota 10W-30... Why? Well, until it's out from under Kubota's "protective services" - I'll stick with there stuff - less finger pointing should something really bad happen (the difference in cost is worth the time spent arguing - in my simple mind).
Now - can someone send me a Duramax for MY driveway!
