Hi,

It means the small screw running through the base of the swan neck can
be turned on its thread and it will fine adjust the watch speed. If it is
functional the swan neck will be pushing the arm against this screw.

(Some swan necks were added to movements effectively as decoration)

I think your next question should be "How do I use the search function?" :D

There's a wealth of knowledge here if you just look.

why there is no H series movement with the correct regulator shape?
