Use a good quality oil and if it's a diesel, put it to work without lugging it excessively. Varying the load is a good idea and lugging it for short periods is OK. Let it warm up for a few minutes and don't putz around with it or let it idle more than a few minutes. That's the worst thing you can do. Let it idle for a couple minutes (after putting it to work) before you shut it off as well. Change the oil after 50 hours. It's not a bad idea to have the oil analyzed and to cut the filter open to check for metal particles. There will be some metal particles so don't be alarmed. They will clear up with each oil sample. Also make sure there are no intake leaks and the air filter is clean.

I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
