How To Replace Broken Screen Corners
Here is a helpful step by step directions on how to replace screen corners on a Hurd Window Screen.
To order screen corners go to www.RandRwindow.com
Part # 141 for old style screen corner and Part # 140 for new style screen corner. Comes in: Gold tone, White or bronze.
PIcture of New style Screen Corner
Old Style Screen Corner
Part # 998 for Screen Spline Tool
For these instructions old screen corners (Part # 141) has been used. But the instructions apply also to the New Style Screen Corners ( Part Number # 140). To Order: www.RandRwindow.com
1. The Screen Corner – you are only going to remove 2 screen corners at a time so you do not have to rescreen your whole screen
2. With a pointed object pull up the spline. The spline is located around the screen frame
3. If you cannot locate the edge of the spline or if it is not near a corner you will have to cut it with a knife
4. Gently pull spline and remove from the top part of the screen. Do not remove spline completely!
5. Notice how spline is only removed from the top and only a few inches down on both sides of the screen
6. Gently pull down screen mesh to the spline
7. Remove top part of frame by pulling straight up. Now 2 screen corners should be exposed
8. Remove broken screen corner and replace with new screen corner on both sides. If part of the old screen corner is broke off in the screen frame – use a pair of pliers to pull it out. If it won’t come out shove the broken part more into the screen frame so the new screen corner can fit all the way in.
9. Make sure you put in the new screen corner the same way as the old one. Repeat on other side
10. Put top frame with new screen coners back into side frame
11. Push top and side frame together so they are tight against the screen corner
12. Push screen mesh back into frame groove
13. Using spline tool (Part # 998) push in spline back into the screen frame
14. The spline may stretch when you push it back into the groove. If this happens cut off any excess
15. Finish inserting spline with spline tool. Repeat steps to replace the bottom 2 screen corners.
Helpful tip: If one screen corner is broke then most likely the opposite diagonal screen comer is broke or at least cracked and should also be replaced.

Instruction for Hurd Sash Adjustment
To purchase the Truth Wrench #190 go to: www.RandRwindow.com
1. The amount of sash drag (a sash is the operating part of a casement window) that this hinge will correct for is dependent on the ratio of the sash width vs. sash height. To calculate the amount of sash drag adjustment for any given window size, take the ratio of the width to height multiplied by 1/16″.
Example: sash size equals 24″ x 36″ width to eight ratio is .667 Total adjustment is .66 x 1/16″ = .042 (Approx. 3/64″)
2. To adjust the casement sash: First fully open the window. Next step the Adjustment wrench (Part # 190 To by go to: www.RandRwindow.com under Parts – Miscellaneous) onto the base of the stud, found between the support arm and the track of the lower hinge. Swinging the wrench away from the lock side of the window will decrease the about of sash drag. The maximum sash drag adjustment is reached when the stud flats are parallel to the track. Note: Turning the stud flats beyond parallel will not increase sash drag correction.
3. For severe sash drag, a similar procedure can be sued on the upper hinge. Upper hinge adjustment is made by swinging the wrench toward the lock side of the window. Maximum adjustment is obtained when the stud flats are parallel to the track. Note: Maximum adjustment may cause biding as the window is closed, please use caution.

How To Determine Handing For Hurd Casement Windows
If you are needing to order a new operator or lock for your Hurd Casement Window you will need to determine the handing of your window as the parts are also handed.
The easiest way to go about this is:
- Looking at your window from the inside.
- If the LOCK for the window is on the LEFT then your window is a LEFT HAND Casement. So you would then need to order a LEFT HAND operator or a LEFT HAND Lock
- If the LOCK for the window is on the RIGHT then your window is a RIGHT HAND Casement. So you would then need to order a RIGHT HAND operator or a RIGHT HAND Lock
