Abstract
A motor chain saw has a housing, a motor arranged in the housing, a drive pinion driven by the motor, and a guide bar connected to the housing. A saw chain is driven in circulation about the guide bar by the drive pinion. A lateral panel is arranged between the housing and an attachment section of the guide bar. The guide bar and the lateral panel each have a distance relative to the drive pinion upstream and downstream of the drive pinion when viewed in a circulating direction of the saw chain. The lateral panel has a first guide that guides the saw chain at a level of rivets of the saw chain, wherein the first guide extends approximately parallel to the plane of the guide bar.
