A portable, hand-guided working tool has a drive motor and a motor housing in which the drive motor is housed. The motor housing has a front side and a rear side when viewed in the direction of the longitudinal center axis of the working tool. A tool member is connected to the front side of the motor housing and extends forwardly in the direction of the longitudinal center axis. The tool member is driven by the drive motor. The rear grip is connected by vibration damping elements to the rear side of the motor housing and extends rearwardly in the direction of the longitudinal center axis. An abutment device includes a first abutment member connected to the motor housing and positioned between the rear end and the rear grip and includes a second abutment member connected to the rear grip and cooperating with the first abutment member for limiting a relative movement between the motor housing and the rear grip.

The invention is directed to a fuel-injection arrangement for a two-stroke engine in a motor-driven chain saw. An injection pump is mounted in a base housing with the injection pump including a pump piston axially displaceable in a pump cylinder. The pump piston delimits a pump chamber. The pump chamber is connected via a suction valve to a fuel tank. The fuel drawn by suction is pumped by the pump piston via a pressure valve, an injection line and an injection valve to the engine. For driving the pump piston, the latter is connected at one end to a membrane via a membrane plate. The membrane delimits a work chamber charged with fluctuating crankcase pressure. A simple assembly is provided by arranging the pump chamber, the suction valve and the pressure valve in a common valve housing which, in turn, is seated in the base housing of the injection pump in a seal-tight manner. The injection line is connected directly to the valve housing. This permits a preassembly of the valve housing with the valves provided therein which facilitates the manufacture of the fuel-injection arrangement.
