Part Directions

A home owner from MN says:

We ordered parts 15-178, 26-228 and 26-229 to repair our windows.

Are there directions for their installation?

We couldn't find any.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

We have a couple videos on how to replace pivot shoes that may help you. You can see them at the end of this post.

As for the tilt latches, they just screw on where the old ones went.
