Talk about the hours on a saw ,and tach/hour meter setups you use here .Also what is your primary use ,production ,firewood etc .
As I already mentioned it won't happen. Been waiting for it and asking since a few years the same questions and besides estimations nothing ever happened....... I know everyone has an estimated amount of hours they run their saws, but without an hour meter it's just an estimation. I'd like to see some actual numbers
All AT & MT saws have a hour metre included in the electronics, all one has to do is go to a dealer, plug in to the "computer" and publish the read out numbers... With that we have an exact number.Estimations should be fine or close enough ,don't need to be an all serious documented thread ,if a guy knows he spent 4 hours cutting firewood one weekend and can remember how many weekends etc should be good enough ,the revolutions per hour thing is pretty anal for a powersaw ,if a guy zip ties a tach to his saw maybe that would help also ,an hour milling is going to be a lot more wear and tear on a saw than an hour firewooding for example .
I believe 90% of guys over estimate the number of hours on their saws. The math doesn't add up. Also, check out the hours on the newer Autotune saws. It would interesting to hear what kind of hours Spike sees on the ones that get a lot of commercial use.

Ladies and gentlemen, we have a winner!!! The first official number posting!!!The early m-tronic saws from 2010 didn`t count operating hours. Later, I think in 2011 the control units were modified and they count operating hours since then. I contacted Stihl in the past to that topic and they said the early control units didn`t support the operating hour count service. But that was modified and now they count the hours.
I have a print (from the dealer service) of the diagnostic report of a FS 460 attached with the stored data of the control unit as an example. Total operating hours are shown with hours, minutes and seconds and the number of succsessful starts below it. I often work with that machine on a horse farm. On the bottom there are shown the fuel settings for idle and full throttle. (switching cycle of solenoid valve)
