Caradco 916 window crank assembly

Quick Learner from Nebraska
I am looking for the correct window crank assembly for the Caradco 916 casement window. As you are looking at the window from inside the house, the window cranks out on the left side with the hinges on the right side.

Thanks for posting. I'm afraid I need pictures to be able to help. Could you provide a photo of the operator removed from the window, including the link arm(s)? A bird's eye view tends to be most helpful. Thank you!

I have attached two photos that I was able to get.

I would love to provide an additional photo, however, the house that the windows are in belonged to my son and daughter-in-law and it has been sold and the new owners are moved in. It appears that there aren't too many options for the replacement operator. Is that correct?

Based on this photo alone, there are actually quite a few possible replacements. Casement operators are distinguished not just by the crank placement, but also by mounting holes and the length and configuration of the link arm(s). This is why I am afraid it is simply impossible to pinpoint one replacement for you without seeing the entire operator, including the link arm(s), removed from the window.
