Can I replace these with the fold ins?

A home owner from Chicago says:
Most of these on our current windows do not work very well. Can I replace them with the truth folding crank handel?

If you just wanted a fold-down type handle, then our 39-205 should work perfectly well for your operator. Look it over and let me know what you think.

A home owner from Chicago says:
Great!
So I do not need to get the kit 39-107FK, just the handle itself will be able to fold with my existing hardware.

The 39-205 will be fully compatible with the cover you have now. The 39-107FK will also work, if you were more interested in the nesting style. It's ultimately up to you since both are compatible.

A home owner from Chicago says:
Is it possible to get the specs for 39-107FK? It looks shorter than the current cover and I'm afriad it might not cover the opening completely.

Tom from SWISCO responded:

I don't have the specs for the 39-107FK at the moment, but I can send someone in to the warehouse today to measure it for you, if you'd like. However I don't think that will be necessary; your old cover is an exact match for our 39-107, and the 39-107FK and 39-107 are specifically designed to be interchangeable. I'm highly confident that it will work for you.

A home owner from Chicago says:
Thanks, Tom.
I realized that our top awning window seems to have a different cover. Please see photo. Will the parts work for those as well?

Tom from SWISCO responded:

They will not, unfortunately. This kind of operator doesn't have a removable cover at all, it's instead built into the mechanism itself. It's all one piece. I'm afraid you're stuck with this style for that particular operator.

A home owner from Chicago says:
Will the 39-205 handles work for those?

Tom from SWISCO responded:

Yes! Even though the design of the base is different, all Truth operators use the same sized spline across all styles, which is 11/32". That means the 39-205 will work perfectly well for this window as it will for the other window. That's one of the handy things about Truth parts.
