wheel and rack casement window operator

Question

I am restoring a 1915 house that has this style of casement hardware (brass) on all casement windows except in the formal dining room.  I am looking for a suitable replacement both functionally and aesthetically for that room.  Thanks!

Thanks so much for reaching out to us. This is one old window, and I'm afraid there aren't many modern parts that would check every box you need here. Your options are going to be very limited.

I would say that our best option is going to be the 39-077. Keep in mind however that this is an educated guess; I've never used it on a window this old and cannot guarantee its efficacy. Look it over and see if you think you could make it work.
