Best Answer

Depending upon the specific casement window the latch is mounted on the inside of the stationary side of the window/window frame. Some are riveted, some are secured by screws, if it is the later then you can remove the screws and loosen the latch (there may be several layers of paint, scratch away at the paint to see if it is either a screw/bolt head or a rivet.) See the links for a company, I like, for spare window parts.....
