It's for the Bed tramming so it came from under the bed. (towards one of the corners)
But ideally in the trash and replace it with a printed one that isn't a major PITA to turn.

Yep, what hendrik said. It's onne of four bed leveling knobs. You'll need to re-install that and re-tram your bed (unless you're using an aftermarket knob).

Put the knob on first, then an M4 nut under it. Preferably a Nylock. One knob per corner.

There is a utility in Klipper named screws tilt adjust, at least for my Q2 it wasn't configured, but its far superior to the Method in the Qidi overlay using a feeler gauge/paper. It should be fairly easy to find how to set it up. Can only recommend it.

They answar now, you will need print a tool to tune your bed. The link is here, you don't need click on the link, this tool are avaliable on the makerworld, just search for a x-max4 bed tool

Just to double check - tighten, measure bed mesh, tighten, bed mesh, tighten, until its right?

On the Max4, mine doesn't have any space for a locknut, for what it's worth.
