URGENT! Which screws do I undo to remove a push-out side hinged window?

Furniture is being delivered the day after tomorrow and the only way to get it into the house is by removing the window.
I need to unscrew the window from the hinge, but, would it be best to remove the hinge screws from the frame, or, from the window itself, or doesn't it matter?
The sealed double glazed window is approx. 45" x 50" has a hinge on each side with handle in centre at the bottom.
The windows were fitted by Zenith about 6/7 years ago.
Your advise would be greatly appreciated.

i would take the hinge of the frame and not the window , take the screws out of the bottom hinge first but not all the way out , you will need help holding the window , till your ready to lift it out , and it will be heavy, , and mark the hinge with a marker , so you can but it back just at it was , so it will close in line and all the way to its seal , get the right size alen key. first ......
