Awning window crank mechanism

Quick Learner

Our home was built in 1958 (I think) and has the original awning Windows. Three of our crank mechanisms need to be replaced and I am not sure what to order. I have attached 3 photos. There is an ID inside the housing that says 1 RH.

Can you help? Thanks so much!

Thanks for posting, Alison. Could you show us some photos of the body of this operator? Specifically, I need a picture that will clearly show the mounting hole positions. Please also provide me your measurements of the mounting hole spacing. That would help us identify the operator.

Thank you for your response. The mounting holes are 5 1/4" apart. Attached are pictures. Thank you!

Thank you! We still can't see the top hole (or holes, as the case may be), so I can't say for sure. I pulled up a few possible operator replacements, which you can see on the right side of this page.

Thanks for the suggestions. I was thinking the 39-194..
What hardware will I need?

Are you referring to installation hardware? You should be able to re-use your old screws, but if not then consider our 33-081.
