The Multiquip HS097000162 Adjust Screw is a genuine OEM component designed for HS81, HS81A, and SHS81A series handheld cut-off saws. This is a direct OEM replacement sourced from Multiquip, ensuring the correct specification for these Sidewinder-style high-speed saws. Verified fitment covers the HS81 and HS81A Multiquip models as well as the SHS81A STOW variant. If your saw's adjustment mechanism is worn, stripped, or missing, this is the correct part to restore proper function.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Specification: — Manufactured to the exact thread pitch and dimensional spec required for the adjustment mechanism on these high-speed cut-off saws — no guesswork on fitment.
- Drop-In Installation: — Replaces the existing adjust screw directly, threading into the factory-machined seat without rework or modification to surrounding components.
- Confirmed Saw Compatibility: — Fits HS81, HS81A, and SHS81A Sidewinder-style handheld cut-off saws across both Multiquip and STOW product lines.
- Maintains Accurate Adjustment: — A correctly seated adjust screw holds its set position under vibration and cutting loads, keeping your saw's mechanism dialed in for consistent, controlled operation.
- Operator Safety Relevance: — An intact, properly torqued adjust screw prevents unwanted mechanism drift during operation — important on a high-speed cutting tool where precise adjustment directly affects safe handling.
The adjust screw on a handheld cut-off saw controls the position or tension of a specific mechanism — such as a throttle, choke, or blade-guard linkage — allowing the operator to set and hold the correct operating parameter. When this screw becomes stripped, corroded, or lost, the associated adjustment can no longer be locked in place, leading to inconsistent performance or unsafe operating conditions. Replacing it with the correct OEM part restores the intended adjustment range and ensures the mechanism holds its setting reliably under the vibration loads typical of cut-off saw operation.
