Gear showing the plastic snow that forms around the worm gear that drives the unit. This nylon gear that shreds is the fail safe between your motor causing serious damage. This gear needs to be replaced when the operator tries to open a door that is beyond the force that the motor can handle. This is also a common occurrence when a motor has been used for many years without a proper balancing of the door. The motor has to lift the door and if there is any kind of weight issue then this gear will be the part that fails.
