Yup, damage can occur. I have my legs marked as well. It is important that the legs are aligned properly or early failure will occur, which was the reason I had to replace mine. One leg was not square, placing stress on the gear assembly. When I replaced the legs, I also installed a better quality gear box and have been trouble free for two years now.
