9760 350 hours and I do no know if it was chipped. The way it vibrated when the cylinder was closed in green stem beans , if it had more hp , something would have gone south in a hurry. The STS is a nice operating machine, it has lots of nice features, all typical Deere. The main objection I have, from a county boy mind set, is when something does go wrong, and it did, the repair time and cost is over what we are used to on the silver side. The single point hook up on the header is nice, the Gleaner version is a year away. The single point has a potential, make that a real, possible problem, a slightly bent male terminal post when pressed with a 12" lever is no match for the force . I would request the electrical terminal connection be kept separate as well as the header latch. A strong willed person is not friendly to the system when it is not in alaignment......
