Description

Our custom crank operators are the best replacements for those used on many Hehr windows from the mid-1950s through the 1960s. The arm is 7-11/16" from the pivot point to the hole at the end of the arm. Mounting holes are 3" apart.

Our gears are stamped steel rather than pot metal, so they won't strip out like the old ones.

Our operators have a 1/4" diameter hole in the tip of the arm to accommodate the optional Hehr nylon friction pads which were used on many windows in the 1950s and 1960s. This minor detail will make your restoration much easier.

And to top it all off, we include a quality two-piece spinning handle rather than a cheaper one-piece fixed handle.

This is very similar to original Hehr part number 008-131.

TIP: If your window requires this style operator but with a shorter arm, you can cut the arm to length and re-drill the hole.

Worked in 1964 Bambi II	December 17, 2009
Reviewer: Andrew Zacharias from Winter Springs, FL United States

I replaced both front window operators and nylon glides in our 1964 Bambi II. The operator does not seem as solid as the original and the body outline is slightly different but it fits mechanically and I'm very thankful to be able to find replacements parts for a 45 year old unit! Even though the operation is a little jerky, it is quite possible that the gear strength is greater than the original and that is my primary concern.
I recommend replacing the nylon glides since the originals are easy to break when trying to remove them. Save the old springs since the replacement glides do not include new springs. It is amazing to me that the glides are even available.
If I had to do it again, I would purchase these. Thanks VTS !

Window Operator - Gear 7-11/16"	May 22, 2009
Reviewer: Anonymous Person from SC United States

I ordered this replacement for a broken operator, hoping that a newly made one would be at least as good, if not better quality. While it does fit the original mounting holes that's were the similarities end. The operation is very jerky as it seems to have a problem supporting the window weights. The gear looks undersized, which may account for the jerky operation. The handle is too short which also makes operation hard. If you must have a replacement, this may be your only choice. I intend to look around for something of better quality.
