change from crank to tee

Question

Anderson crank casement window how to change to a tee crank.  I purchase these two window back in fall of 2009 spring 2010.   I need to covert them to the tee style in order to put up some blinds.  I do not know how to remove the crank handle  or see how to do it. I would like some detail instruction on how to remove the handle.  I am not that mechanically inclined but I am willing to give it a go!  Are there some handles that don't come off with out purchasing a new crank case?

Thanks for posting. All Andersen casement window operator handles are held in place with a small set screw. Just unscrew that to loosen the handle, which should then just pull off.
