If you've got a newer Sportsman you can program the display to start flashing when you hit your set mile or hour mark. At least my Sportsman 700 has that feature. Kinda nice when the machine tells you when to change it at your set point of when you want it done. Brian

50 hours is too long to go using Polaris oil.
