I would go more by the overall condition of the tractor than by what the hourmeter says. Hourmeters quit working, get replaced, etc. Additionally, the wiring on those cyclops tractors is horrible, so I really would not trust that the hourmeter has been functioning all this time.

Not to mention that the hourmeter is not going to show the difference between a 2000-hour tractor that's been well-maintained and a 500-hour machine that's been abused.

If it was maintained well, the CH20 in that 2084 could go 2000 hours. I have seen even series I KT-17s approach 1700 hours....
