266730-5 supersedes older part numbers: 266730-5
Original Makita 266730-5 — Cup‑head, square‑neck bolt (metric). A genuine Makita replacement fastener used on the handle/pipe assembly of 430 mm cordless lawn mowers: the part is a cup‑head (countersunk seating) bolt with a square neck that locks into the mating plate to prevent rotation while you tighten the nut. Depending on the model, the bolt is listed in Makita parts diagrams as M6 × 50 mm (BLM430) or M8 × 50 mm (LM430D), so check which diameter your machine uses before ordering.
Fits (examples from Makita parts diagrams): BLM430 (430 mm cordless mower) and LM430D. The same 266730-5 part number appears on Makita parts breakdowns for the 430 mm mower and is the same part where the upper/lower pipe and handle join.
Why this part matters: the square neck profile keeps the bolt from turning in the slot so the handle/pipe stays secure under load; the 50 mm length gives the clamp engagement needed through the tube and washers/nuts shown in the assembly. Sold as the original Makita spare part and supplied individually to replace the original fastener.
