Abstract

A carrying device for carrying a hand-guided power tool by a user has a shoulder strap and a lateral leg plate with a connecting unit for coupling a power tool to the carrying device. A support strap is connected with one end to the shoulder strap and the leg plate is slidably arranged at the support strap to slide along the support strap in a longitudinal direction thereof. A fixation device is arranged between support strap and leg plate and has a release position and a blocking position. In the release position, the leg plate is slidable along the support strap; in the blocking position, the leg plate is non-slidably secured on the support strap. The blocking position is correlated with a first working mode of the power tool; the release position is correlated with a second working mode of the power tool.
