Default '09 LTX 1040 - What are these numbers on the gauges?

I was wondering if somebody could decipher the numbers that are being displayed on my '09 LTX 1040.

This is what is lit up on the gauge when the motor is running.

I understand that the oil light remains on from 2-5 hrs after it comes on and/or an oil change.

Do I have 1508, 508, 150.8 or 50.8 hrs? And/or is that '1' representing something else?
Previous owner bought new and only mowed 1/2 acre or less at a time.

According to the manual that would be 1508 hours. But if used on a typical yard I would think 150 hours would be more like it for the year it is. But the hour meter will run if the key is not in the stop position.

Thanks for the link! I bought it from a neighbor, and it definitely is a small yard. Small, fenced in, no woods, no plowing, no hauling was done...only mowing. No way it can be 1500 hrs. Maybe 500....let's see....

Here in SW Ohio, their yard would be mowed once, sometimes twice in the spring per week, maybe 30-45 mins each time, 8 months out of the year.

Mower is 6 yrs old.

Times mowed per year: 32-48
Average time to mow: 30
Age of mower: 6 yrs

That would total approx. 96-144 hrs.

I'd guess it's 150.8 hrs and the decimal point light is burnt out.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
