Abstract

A handle-connecting assemby for hand-held machine tools comprises a wire element having a loop engaging a tool-supporting projection of the tool and a hollow member adapted to receive the ends of the wire element. The ends of the wire element are rigidly connected to a head of a bolt, the end threaded portion of which is threaded into a handle. The wire element connecting the tool-supporting projection to the handle provides for sufficient flexibility of such connection thereby the handle may positioned at an acute angle to the axis of elongation of the projection.
