Awning crank attachment

Quick Learner from Sarasota, Florida
After many tries I found the only window crank that fits exactly over the holes on the frame from the old crank. It is a Stanley operator, BUT as you see on the photos the bracket is slightly separated from the window part, and the worst thing is that there nowhere to screw the shoulder screw. There are just 2 smooth holes, no thread... Please help, I have 4 window to fix!

Hello there. It seems like you need a screw to make the thread with this link arm. For our Stanley Operators, the fastener used is typically the #10 x 1/2" Pan Head Phillips Screw, but I don't believe this is a self-tapping screw, which is what you're going to need. In that case I'd see if a hardware store can supply this a self-tapping version of this screw for you. Let me know if you have further questions.
