A side handle assembly comprises a handle configured to be gripped by a user, a rod coaxially coupled the handle and rotationally fixed to the handle, and a clamp coupled to the rod. The clamp includes a flexible band enclosing an area and having a first end and a second end, a first connection block coupled to the first end of the flexible band, and a second connection block coupled to the second end of the flexible band. The rod includes an annular shoulder abutted with the first connection block and a threaded portion received within a threaded bore of the second connection block. In response to the handle being rotated in a first direction, the second connection block is moved closer to the first connection block along the threaded portion of the rod, decreasing the area enclosed by the flexible band.

Side handle for power tool

A side handle assembly comprises a handle configured to be gripped by a user, a rod coaxially coupled at a first end to the handle, the rod rotationally fixed to the handle, and a mounting assembly. The mounting assembly includes a first tool interface with a through bore, the first tool interface configured to accept a clamping shaft within the through bore, a second tool interface with a threaded bore, the second tool interface configured to accept a threaded portion of the clamping shaft within the threaded bore, and an orientation adjustment mechanism coupling a second end of the rod to the mounting assembly and configured to adjust an orientation of the rod and handle with respect to at least one of the first tool interface or the second tool interface of the mounting assembly.
