A portable power tool includes an electric motor having a motor shaft, an output shaft arranged in parallel to the motor shaft and configured to be driven by rotation of the motor shaft, a tool accessory operably connected to the output shaft and configured to undergo an orbital and/or rotational motion in response to rotation of the output shaft, a first bearing that rotatably supports the output shaft, and a second bearing that rotatably supports the output shaft and is arranged closer to the tool accessory than the first bearing in an axial direction in which the output shaft extends. The first and second bearings are arranged at positions that do not overlap with a radially outermost one of components of the electric motor when viewed in a shaft arrangement direction in which the motor shaft and the output shaft are arranged in parallel.
