A portable motor chain saw with a safety braking device to protect against kick-back, recoil or centrifugal movements of the saw. The saw includes a handle supported against the motor housing by damping elements, and also includes a locking device which on the one hand is connected with the handle, and on the other hand engages against a hand guard in such a way that it is released under the influence of relative movement, of the motor housing with respect to the handle, caused by a kick-back or centrifugal movement, consequently releasing the hand guard. The locking device has an abutment surface extending transverse to the direction of centrifugal movement, and this abutment surface cooperates with a projection directed against it. |
