Hi there, can you help me figure out what part I need?
This is a Milgard window.
I believe the part we need is called an "operator".
It is completely rusted/frozen/locked up in place.
We may have stripped the crank, it turns freely but does nothing.
I am an unskilled homeowner, but am planning to hire a handyman to replace this part.
We just need to identify which part needs replaced
Thank you!
Cindy

Hi Cindy,
Thanks for posting! This window operator is likely to be a match for either the 39-253RB or 39-439B Encore Dual Arm Operator. To determine which style is the correct replacement, you'll need to confirm the attachment at the end of the longer, straight arm. Take a look at the tutorial for an explanation on the differences between each operator.
The compatible hardware and accessories can be found on the website.
