A dust collection nozzle extends from the front of a fixing cover parallel to a base below an upper end of an electric motor. Heavy and large cutting dust can be immediately collected from an area relatively close to a cutting position of a portable cutting device cutting a workpiece immediately after dust is generated due to the cutting, which can in turn improve dust collection efficiency of a dust collection device to which the dust collection nozzle is attached.

Cutting device

A hand-held cutting tool may include a handle and a battery pack. The handle has a rear portion with respect to a work proceeding direction along which the cutting tool is moved for performing a cutting operation. When the battery pack is mounted to the rear portion of the handle, the longitudinal direction of the battery pack extends non-parallel with the work proceeding direction.

Hand-held cutting tools

An electric tool may include a tool main body configured to be able to mount a battery pack. The tool main body may include an electric motor, a controller for controlling the electric motor, and a centrifugal fan rotatably driven by the electric motor for producing a flow of air. The controller may be positioned such that the flow of air produced by the centrifugal fan is applied to at least a part of the controller.
