Replacement operators for 2003 Marvin casement windows
Thanks for posting! There is a chance we can provide you with a replacement recommendation for your Marvin window operator but I'll need to see a photo of the entire operator to confirm.
I am specifically looking to see a photo of the arm(s) and how the operator connects to the bottom of the swinging window. Unfortunately, there are quite a few different operator that have a similar design for the base, so I'll need to see the additional details to narrow it down.
Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions you might have in the meantime.
Thanks for the photos. We do not have an exact replacement match for your casement operator but our 39-172 Truth Hardware Dyad Operator may work as a suitable alternative. We've recommended this as a replacement for many other customers.
Take a look over the dimensions and compare them to your existing operator to determine if this could work as a replacement. Feel free to reach out with any questions!
There is a good chance our 39-172 may work as is but we do have two solutions that will work to correct this issues.
- This first option is to move the position of the bracket over a few inches on the bottom of the swinging sash. This should help to compensate for the 1/2" difference in the link arm.
- The second option is to swap out the link arms. To complete this process, you'll need to drill out the rivet on both the old operator and the new operator. Then you'll need to use the 62-014B Rivet to secure the old link arm to the new operator. For this option you would not need to move the bracket.
Please feel free to reach out with any questions.
Yes, any unaltered and undamaged parts would be returnable. Our full return policy can be viewed here.
All of the compatible hardware is already tagged below.
Please let me know if there is anything else I can assist with.
Have a great day!
If you're going to use the first method, it will not be necessary to purchase the rivet. As mentioned, this would only be used if your are going to swap out the link arm. The operator comes with a compatible detach clip, it is shown attached at the end of the link arm in the photo.
In regard to the brackets, you'll need to examine your existing brackets and compare them to determine if the 39-546 is the correct one for the side of the window you are repairing.
You'll need to determine whether or not the hinges need to be replaced. They function separately from the window operator. You did not inquire about replacing the hinges, so I did not include them below but I am happy to take a look at your existing hinges if you would like to replace them.
