A trimmer has a drive motor, a cutting tool, and a drive shaft connecting the drive motor and the cutting tool. A protective tube encloses the drive shaft. A connector is provided for connecting a handle bar, having a first and a second section, to the protective tube. The first and second sections are parallel to one another, and the first section is connected to the protective tube. The first section has a free end with a first handle and the second section has a free end with a second handle. The handle bar is positioned asymmetrically relative to the longitudinal axis of the protective tube. The handle bar has a bent portion, with a first and a second bend, connecting the first and second sections. The bent portion is positioned adjacent to the connector. In the operating position of the trimmer, the longitudinal axis of the second section is displaced relative to the longitudinal axis of the first section along the longitudinal axis of the protective tube.
