I believe the operator you show in your photo is from the late 1950's. Due to its age, I don't think it's available any longer. That said, we still may be able to help. I would suggest using one of the current style operators like our 39-389, along with the 39-286 handle. You may be able to adapt this to work in your window, though I'm not sure as to the extent of the adaptation you would require.

Your old handle may not work, no. I would recommend the 39-286 handle.

Take note that the 39-390 short kit sash rod is 31". Make sure you have the width for that. It should work if you have the room. It basically works on the same principle as your original. When installing the sash rod and clips, you want to keep the rod in the same horizontal position as the original rod. Mount the rod clips at the end location for the rod, then secure the clips to the sash with screws; the rod snaps into those clips. It might be helpful to attach the clips at the end of the rod first and hold it up to the window, that way you can get the correct position for the mounting screws.
