Ya know, it's been like this ever since it was installed, the handle is in front of the window when shut. Get's kinda hot sometimes. Once it cools down, I'll check and see if I can adjust it so it's inline with frame, anyone else have this situation?

Yes, the handle is supposed to be vertical, straight up and down. See page 31 of the manual. Loosen the inside nut with a 9/16" wrench.
