1 INSTALL ROTO COVER AND CRANK
Note: Finish the interior of the window and allow the window to dry before proceeding with these
instructions. (To open the window for finishing, partially insert the lock handle into the jamb, unlock the
unit, temporarily attach the crank handle and to open.)

cover into place.
Note: If the cover does not have the screw hole, apply pressure on the pocket end of the cover to
snap the cover into place and proceed to step C.

screwdriver to secure the pocket screw snug against the bottom of the pocket to avoid scratching the
crank handle knob. DO NOT over tighten.
C. Use a medium size flat-blade screwdriver to loosen the set screw in the crank handle.
D. Slide the crank handle down and check alignment of knob with the pocket.
Note: You may need to adjust the crank position on the stud until the correct alignment is achieved.
F. Open the crank and tighten the set screw.
G. After the final installation, fold the crank over and snap the knob into the pocket.
Note: Even with the window open the crank can be folded to avoid interfering with the window
treatments.

Note: You may want to remove the lock lever prior to finishing the window, or if it needs to be replaced
with a lock lever in a different finish.
A. Unlock and open the window.
B. Place the lock lever in the locked position.
C. From the exterior of the window, insert a small flat-blade screwdriver between thecam and lock
lever near the bottom of opening between the stop and frame gasket.
D. Push the screwdriver inwards with a small amount of pressure; then turn the blade slightly
clockwise for a left hand unit, counter-clockwise for a right hand unit.
DO NOT over-twist the
screwdriver, this can damage the lock driver.

until it snaps into the cam.
