Weather Shield 9-1/2" Left-Hand Single Arm Casement Operator (Folding Handle Style)
This is the original-style Weather Shield left-hand single arm casement window operator with a solid metal housing. It was designed to be used with a folding-style handle rather than a fixed crank.
The 9-1/2" (24.1mm) arm length refers to the operator's arm reach. Verify handedness by standing outside the home looking at the window; a left-hand operator installs on the left side of a casement window sash.
This operator is discontinued. The current replacement is the new-style Ellipse operator, which uses a plastic decorative cover that snaps over the metal body. If you are replacing this unit, you will need the matching Ellipse operator and cover listed below.

“Ordered a hard-to-find Pella handle set from the website. Handle arrived as promised and fit perfectly. It was listed as blemished but the chip was nearly invisible and on the exterior of a seldom used door. You saved me $450!”
