In "service man" mode only, just hit the "PAGE" key one the remote until you get to page 5, and all three CRT hours are right there. When you're in "user" mode, that page won't even show up - there will be only 4 pages.

1252 does have a counter. Mine show's around 4200 hours. Only a 4 diget counter so from the fact that it was in a bar I would guess 14 200 or 24 200
EDIT: my laousy speelling
