Lever awning operator replacement

Question

I purchased a replacement lever operator 39-069 for an awning window, but it was too large for the opening. I am sending a couple of photos of the old part. They are attached, one top and one bottom view.

The overall length of the arms is 18 1/2". The "pins" are 17 3/4" center to center.

This was a lever type operator, and the lever broke off. I am not sure I have the broken piece any more, and it is not something fixable in any case.

The next smaller lever in your catalog is a crank type of about 16" overall. A crank type probably would work out--no reason why it shouldn't.

Yes, the only other size would be the 39-037, with a 13-1/8" arm span. I believe it should work in your window. It might not open up as far as your original, but it won't interfere with the overall function, ideally. I think the size you originally had is no longer available. I did check with suppliers, and I could not come up with anything that uses a 18-1/2" arm.
