I change mine by the manual but I think it varies from model to model, depending on the engine size and amount of oil in the system. I know my B2400 is every 100 Hours and the L4740 is every 200 hours. The M5700 at the farm is every 300 hours. In all cases and for my particular usage, it means that the oil and filter get changes at least once a year.

If it makes you feel happier changing the oil every 100 hours, irrespective of what the manual says, then go for it. It's all about buying peace of mind and the additional cost isn't that much.
