It appears that the fiber gear has slipped down on the shaft until only the corners of the teeth were engaged, which caused them to break. Push the fiber gear back up the shaft as far as it will go and give it a try.
OR
If that's not the case. Push the gear off the shaft, flip it over, and press it back on. Should work fine.

I tried pushing it back down, to no avail. I will try removing it and flipping it over. Thanks

Fiber gear is not budging, so still looking.

Still looking. Would consider a rough looking machine with a bad spring. Open to options.

They only want $500 for it. What a bargain!

$500...??? The ad says "Name Your Price"...
That is fraudulently misleading...

If you send to me, I will press it off and flip for you.
