It looks like it has a couple points of movement. Swivels at the bottom and then the threaded shaft.
Just a guess here, but maybe part of the tail wheel retracting mechanism?

All i can find with a letter number combination for the Fw190 series starts with w8
That said i have little on a D9 specific

Having a couple points of movement should narrow it down to what areas it could be part of. Maybe could also part of the canopy sliding mechanism.

all references (i have seen so far) to a "W" in manual or ersatzteil liste ar for tools. With a company name like junker it would make w number and a company abbreviation as in ju

ig a special wrench for a junkers 87 would be Ju W4 005.

Hello,

I can only add another wild guess: It seems to me that for retracting the tail wheel or actuating the cockpit hood that gadget would work too slowly. So I suggest it could be a part of the adjusting mechanism of the horizontal stabilizer. The Me 109 had a similar Spindel for that purpose.
