If crank operator become worn or there are missing splines on the crank stud, broken or stripped gears or a worn-out crank arm, it will be necessary to replace the entire crank operator. This often is the case when the crank handle spins loosely as it's turned or doesn't pull the sash far enough inward to successfully engage the locking mechanism.

If the window's overall condition is good, it is preferable to replace the crank over replacing the entire window sash. Crank handles can be replaced if only the teeth are missing but if there are worn or broken parts the entire operating mechanism must be replaced.

Crank arms must first be removed from the guide track. When the window is opened it can be cranked until the notch on the guide track aligns with the plastic guide bushing. Trim mounting screws must then be unscrewed to remove the casement cover and remove the crank. A new crank can then be installed, reversing the procedure.
