Hours are not always hours.
I used my Deere 4100 for eighteen months and built up 70 hours.
My new BX22 has 40 hours in 3 months with the same rate of usage.
The 4100 only records a full hour on the meter at full rated rpm, and it is a gear trans so I only ran it as fast as it needed to get the job done.

The Kubota records a full hour regardless of the engine speed. If the 4100 had the same metering system as the Kubota it would probably read 240 hours not 70.
