Good morning Mike
After Years of use, I have not had any problems with the gears, I honestly do
not think, a normal Legacy user would ever weir out a gear, If they/ the gears,
are missing it due to being lost or misplaced. Which is really frustrating to
me. knowing that the gears are going to be thrown in the trash or had already
been so.
I need to call Cindy at Legacy and ask he about making the drive gears. I was
told, in the past that Legacy would make all wearable parts for there machines,
but when I last checked, they told me that they did not have any. Which I took
to mean that they were not selling them any more. And if Legacy will still make
them, at what cost? ($$$) .I wish you luck on your quest, Mike. Hopefully you
will soon find the machine of your dreams. ;-)

The machine I'm looking at now is a 1200. The owner(who bought it used)
cannot find any drive gears other than the one on the unit. Also interesting
enough as I had said before the reversing gear set is on the machine and they
cannot find the left hand directional gear. The person said they bought to do
spirals and such ,but then headed in another direction so did not actually use.
My gut is telling me that they either bought it not understanding what it was
missing and then found it to be non functional for what they needed with the
missing gears and therefore it set unused. Or they just misplaced the most
important parts over time and now cant find them. What I find interesting is
that so far any machine that I have seen that is lower priced is missing these
gears and therefore not a current option, but every machine that has the gears
appears to be over priced for what I'm willing to pay for an obsolete machine
with a limited specific functionality. I assume that under normal usage the
gears should not be wearing out, but could they get damaged in use? If not
then obviously all of these gears are being lost along the way.

Curt my manual said that the 900 only came with the left hand directional gear
set. If you wanted both you had to order it?

Hello Mike.
Remember that the Legacy comes with 7 drive gears, and at least one Standard
gear set. and two directional gears sets, Beyond that everything is Gravy!
I find it very funny that most Second hand Legacy's you can find on the market
today, are missing gears. I have no idea why? Its not like they will fit any
other machine on the market, or have any other uses. BUT The last Three
Legacy's that I've bought second hand were all missing the gears.
So knowing this, Perhaps it could be a good way to get someone selling a Legacy
to lower the price, if they are missing parts?Many of these people have no idea
on what they have, its just something taking up space, and they just want to
get rid of it.
Wish you luck on finding your own Legacy.
talk to you more latter.
Have a good night.

I am looking at another 1200 mill that the owner is trying to find the drives
gears other than the 1 on the machine. Also it currently shows what I believe
is the reversing gear set (2 small gears in housing}on the mill but not showing
a photo of the std single gear with mounting u-channel. Is this as big an
issue as not having drive gears?
