Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9955503A1] A handle unit (1) for a hand-held working tool (2), such as a chain saw (2), cutting machine or hedge trimmer, and the working tool comprises a drive unit (3) with an engine and a cutting unit (4), such as a guide bar (4) with saw chain. The handle unit comprises two mutually associated hand grips (5, 6), which, at normal use of the tool, are located higher up than the drive unit, which is rotatably mounted to the handle unit so that the cutting direction (16) of the cutting unit while rotating is being changed in vertical to horizontal direction. At least one attachment frame (7) is mounted to the drive unit, and the handle unit is arranged with at least one handle support (8) intended for detachable attachment in different positions along the attachment frame (7). The handle unit is provided with a down-projecting part (9), which extends down at a rear side (10) of the drive unit, i.e. the side that is opposite to a cutting side (11), i.e. the side from which the cutting side (4) protrudes, and engine controls, such as a throttle cable and an electric cord for stop control, are mounted onto the down-projecting part (9) so that they become protected.
