"Truth" casement crank handle Jeldwen window

Landlord from Saint Paul, MN
Apparently these casement windows have become difficult to close all the way. My tenant broke the handle on the right window and has been using a pliers rather than tell me about it. (Remind me why I have rental units again...)

I took pictures of the intact crank handle (left window) and the broken crank handle (right window). The crank arm says "Truth". It is a Jeldwen vinyl casement window.
Please tell me I can just buy the handle and not replace the whole mechanism. I'll be your new best friend.

*please note (unless I am mistaken) the handles are not interchangeable. I can use the intact crank handle on both sides (only took me 2 minutes to figure that out but my tenant used pliers for 18 mo...) but it does not nest in the fancy plastic cover.

If the operator still opens and closes the window with a pair of pliers, then it should be okay. Check out our 39-375 and 39-376 and see how these match up to your handles and covers.

You are now my new best friend. I also found a slew of other parts on your site. I had no idea I could repair the venting locks. Or the tip out lock- where have you been all my life? Oh yeah, probably right here.
Thank you so so much!
