Is there any benefit to taking it to the dealership and letting them do the first oil change vs doing it yourself for warranty purposes?

Not really.

Biggest concern is for either of you doing it correctly. Dealer or you.
So many people failed to do it properly... same for dealers.

It's easy tho.
Just make sure you identify each of the 3 drain bolts along with both fill ports and the check port.
Don't use a torque wrench.
And look out for the filter springs and be careful with the o-rings.

First time will be a 4 beer job.
Second time will be a 1 beer job.

Guess I could have worded my question better. As far as the warranty is concerned, will it make difference. My son is a diesel mechanic for John Deere so not real worried about messing anything up. He suggested have the dealership do the first oil change for warranty purposes. Just looking for other opinions.
Thanks

As far as the warranty is concerned,

Nope.
Im a Generac technician, they recommend that documentation under warranty cuz of there set up and the expense of in the field repair and u have to keep up with it during that period. SxS’s and most Automotive manufacture's do not. So Stay away from the dealer rape of that first first service they are trying to suck u into😉

Ya, Not required to have the dealer do it.
Just keep a manual record, and if you want a record of receipt from supplies.
