Oil & Fuel Cost of 50 hr service at Dealer for B2650 vs doing it yourself?

I just parked sideways on a hill with the filter "uphill". Didn't lose more than a few drops of fluid.

Me to but I just push it on over and makes it easier, then pull it back to it's wheels with my pick up truck.

Here's a pictorial, walk-you-through thread I did a few years back on my B2320. If you can change oil on your car, you can do a B series. Pretty easy.

Thanks Everyone. Looking at the Maintenance chart in the manual, I was mistaken on changing the Hydraulic & front axle fluid at 50. That is listed at 400 hrs. In the video I posted earlier, he changed both at 50 so I assumed it was the case for my tractor. No so. Someone mentioned that earlier. Thanks!
Anyway here's the list for 50 hours on the B2650 HSD:

1) Engine Oil (replace)
2) Engine Oil Filter (replace)
3) Transmission Oil Filters (replace)
4) Engine Start System (Check only)
5) Wheel Bolt Torque (Check)
6) Grease (every 10 hrs)

This is a piece of cake.

Yep, but about a $500 piece of cake for dealer service.
