I'm interested also, and what is the weight of a 630/635? There was one for sale here on PR, at a great price (it's gone), and I was tempted to sell my 440 for it.

Here is a video on You Tube of how to check the hours on the 200/730E. It might be the same for the 630.

No prob! I clearly don't need it, just thinking that at that price, I'd be silly not to. But having a machine mailed is too anxiety-inducing anyway. I'm glad a PR member got it :).

Thank you Carol for the help, I looked at the video, but it seemed a little risky for me not knowing much about the machine. and since I plan to take it in soon for a servicing , I think I had better wait. [ just to be safe] I did not realize it would be that complicated. I thought It would be simple.

Maia, you are right it is risky these days the shippers are so rough and I had a few anxious moments for sure, but Patti [ the very nice seller] packed it well and it made it just fine.
