Abstract
A portable handheld power tool (), such as a chain saw or a power drill, having a receiving device () arranged on a body portion () of the power tool (). The receiving device () is arranged for connecting/disconnecting to the portable handheld power tool () either a flexible elongated member, such as a rope, or a fastening device secured to the elongated member or to an operator of the portable handheld power tool (). The receiving device () has a receiving portion () for receiving and leading the flexible elongated member therethrough. The receiving portion () extends substantially in a plane (P). Furthermore, the receiving device () has an attachment portion () which is arranged to connect the receiving device () to a body portion () of the portable handheld power tool () by means of a pivot assembly (). The pivot assembly () defines a pivot axis (PA), permitting the receiving portion () to move between a resting position, wherein the plane of the receiving portion () is essentially parallel to the pivot axis (PA), and an operating position. In the operating position, the receiving portion () is movable about the pivot axis (PA), and the plane (P) of the receiving portion is essentially perpendicular to the pivot axis (PA).
