Abstract

A guiding rail arresting device for motor driven hand saws, especially motor chain saws, in which a sword-shaped guiding rail provided with a guiding groove extending in the longitudinal direction of the guiding rail is adapted to be clamped transverse to the plane of said rail against an abutment having associated therewith a counter guiding member for cooperation with the flanks of the guiding groove. The counter guiding member for at least one of the groove flanks is formed by a supporting element adapted when clamping the rail against the abutment automatically to be clamped against the groove flank.
