Window does not close / Handle is at 3/4

Good morning everyone,

I have a window here that hasn’t been closing properly for some time. I have this problem with various doors/windows in the house, but until now I have always managed to fix it by adjusting them.

Around the window, there are, as usual with all windows, "Einstell-Nasen" which I can adjust with a hex key. (Reduce or increase the distance to the frame)

Since the window no longer closes, the handle gets stuck at 3/4 and cannot be pushed all the way down, I tried to adjust these adjustment options. However, I did not find the one that was adjusted "incorrectly". I tried all possibilities and basically adjusted everything now – but the window still does not close, and the handle still has the same problem.

This raises the question for me: Is there a "starting position" in which the window should definitely close? Even if it is not completely pressed in then – that could be corrected afterward.

Is there a way to find out which bolt is the incorrectly adjusted one? I also suspect that adjusting several different bolts might just be shifting the problem from A to B.

Could it possibly also be due to another adjustment on the window? Does anyone have tips on how I can get the window repaired?

I have already tried a lot here and am stuck.
Window brand: Baltic

How old are the windows?
Please show some pictures (frame, lock, mushroom cams...) of the problem window.

Is there a "locking protection" on the window? (Therefore pictures).

Can the handle be turned when the window is open (90 degrees)?

Hello,

Pictures are coming immediately. Edit: Pictures added

The misuse protection already blocks at the 90° position. If I manually unlock it with the window open, the handle moves smoothly all the way down. Mechanically, there seems to be no problem. Since the handle can be turned past 90° and only blocks at 3/4, I assume there is no issue here.

The windows are about 4 years old.

If I manually unlock it with the window open, the handle moves smoothly all the way down.

And do all the mushroom heads move as well? Then it can only be that one or even several do not "catch behind," but are blocked. Are you turning the hexagon (nut) on the mushroom head picture? :rolleyes: It's way too far out! And the mushroom head too. So, screw everything back in. I only know mushroom heads as eccentrics.

Eccentric!

That's it - thank you!

Actually, I am turning the nuts. These nuts are for adjusting how much the window is pressed against the frame - so they are definitely meant to be turned. This way, they don't move further out but only adjust the mushroom head in an egg-shaped position.

But the mushroom heads also have the possibility to be pulled out - I haven't fiddled with that adjustment at all yet. All pressed in - no change, all pulled out: closes!!!

Perfect. I could have tinkered with that for years.

Many thanks!
