Genuine Makita 265791-2 — Thumb screw (M4). This is a knurled, hand-tighten thumb screw with an M4 thread (4 mm diameter) used on Makita petrol outdoor tools to secure small covers, air‑cleaner/cleaner plates, guards and handle brackets where tool‑free adjustment or removal is required.
Compact, metal construction designed for repeated hand‑tightening and to resist vibration loosening when fitted correctly; sold as the single replacement thumb screw used in the parts breakdowns for Makita brushcutters and hedge trimmers.
Example Makita models this part is listed against (examples only): EM2650LH / EM2650UH (and related EM2651/EM2654 variants), ER2650LH, and several petrol hedge trimmers such as EH5000W, EH6000W and EH7500 series. Use these model examples to confirm fit with your parts diagram or manual before installing.
