CAUTION: Many windows in older homes are painted with lead-based paint. Removal
of old windows may disturb this paint. Proper precautions must be taken to minimize
exposure to dust and debris. Consult state or local authorities for more information.
Note: Verify the opening and window dimensions prior to removing the existing
window sash.
A. Score paint or varnish along interior sash stops with a sharp utility knife. Remove the
interior sash stops at jambs (sides) and head (top) using a putty knife and pry bar.
B. Cut the balance cords on the bottom sash and lift out the sash. Allow weights to fall to the
bottom of the weight pocket.

C. Remove the parting stops by prying them out or by pulling them out with a channel lock.
There may be a small wedge of wood at the bottom of the upper sash that is next to the
parting stops. To make it easier to remove the parting stop, use a chisel to knock off the
wedge.
