Following the manual and also the oil changing guide by jackal I didn't read any information about this.

I just noticed there's another dip stick / oil fill very close to the oil filler labeled HL4. Both instructions say to fill both via the oil fill. What is this HL4 for???

Hope I didn't mess something up :)

Never mind I think I figured it out. One is a fill and one is the dipstick to check :)

See, I told you I never check after I fill!! LOL

HL4 is the model # of your machine. 1000!

HL5 is the 500
HL3 is the 700
HL2 was skipped. We have our rumors!
HL1 is the Big Red.

Question now is... When will we see a HL6?

Guess it would be foolish to ask why the numbers don't correspond with the models? Unless the 700 came out before the 500, the 500 should be 3 and the 700 5? Wait, the 500 should be 3, 700 4 and the 1000 5???

bingo... Well almost bingo.
The 1000 was in design before the 500 thus collecting a earlier model #.
Release order was like this - 700, 500, 1000!

While I've got your attention and off subject, I replied to your message but I don't know if you were notified or not. That actually happens a lot, I'll get a message, I'll reply, but sometimes not get a reply to my reply making me think the website is not notifying the other party.

Curious about the point system? Keep seeing these points next to my name but can't find any information about it?

I scanned website and even put it under search but couldn't see any information about what those points mean or what we can do with them?
