Helpful Expert Reply:

It sounds like you have an older model of the MaxxFan Deluxe Roof Vent # MA00-07000K. Repair parts for these older models with a square drive have been discontinued. The Replacement Operator Mechanism # MA10-20281K-1AF will not work with your older lifter arm.

I do have a solution for you though. You will need to replace both the Operator Mechanism with Item # MA10-20281K-1AF and the Lift Arm with Item # MA10-20222KS. Check out the vent assembly diagram on page 4 of the Repair Parts List document I have attached for you.
