Re: Haas spindle time not correct. Reading way high.

Hours are:
Servo Time: 5,083 hours
Motion Time: 8,089 hours
Spindle Time: 57,342 hours
I would think that the spindle time would be somewhat relative to the other 2 numbers. There are roughly 8,700 hours in a year. That means that this spindle would have had to run steady non stop for 6.5 years.
Has anyone ever heard of the time not reading correct? He verified what he read.
Thanks.
On the bright side, it is definitely broken in!
