<p>In a power-driven work machine (1) having a pair of left and right handles (5, 6), an operating lever device (30) includes an operating lever (31), pivotably mounted on one of the left and right handles (5), for switching an operational condition of the work machine between active and inactive conditions, and a locking lever (41), pivotably attached to the operating lever, for locking the operating lever. A direction in which the operating lever is to be turned so as to place the work machine in the active condition and a direction in which the locking lever is to be turned so as to unlock the operating lever are identical with each other, so that a human operator can perform, using only one hand, the operation for unlocking the operating lever and the operation for turning the operating lever to place the work machine in the active condition. <IMAGE></p> |
