As I can see in cron output that minutes are first, then hours, then hmm ...
man 5 crontab
"The time and date fields are:
field allowed values
----- --------------
1 minute 0-59
2 hour 0-23
3 day of month 1-31
4 month 1-12 (or names, see below)
5 day of week 0-7 (0 or 7 is Sun, or use names)"
1 2 3 4 5
59 * * * * for hourly
14 4 * * * is for daily, etc.
