Hi Gang, new to group (first posting);

I have a question, I just tried changing the gears on my Logan 200 (no
QC), got sidetracked, came back to it 2 days later and can't figure out
the right way to put it all back together. I have the manual, not very
helpful in this area....

The is a Bolt (with a thick end, kind of like a t-nut on my mill),steel
sleeve with a flat wide bottom (hollow all of the way through), a brass
bushing, a washer, 2 gears and a nut. When I get it all back together,
the gear seems to loose.

The part numbers are La 232,249,312,313,314,325,026,0539.

Can someone talk me through this re-assembly process...I feel like a
dope, but no mater the order I try, the gears feel to wobbley (sp).

John,

Sorry to dash your hopes, but the parts shown in your pictures are NOT
Logan parts (except maybe the gears). For reference, the gears should
be 7/16" thick, 5/8" ID, and have a 5/32" keyway.

That probably explains why the manual was not much help, in this case,
and also why the gears end up loose.

With the correct parts and the correct assembly, the stud should turn
freely, but the gears should not be loose.

Feel free to call me Monday (815-943-9500), and we can discuss
further.
