Abstract
The prime mover of a chain saw has an output shaft passing through the body of an oil pump. A fixing screw is inserted through an inserting hole provided in the body and is screwed into a threaded hole provided on the side of the prime mover. A cover plate, covering the area tip of the output shaft, is press fit onto the output shaft. The inserting hole is made as a threaded hole having a diameter through which the fixing screw is freely insertable but is also adapted to receive a removing screw which is larger in diameter than the fixing screw, and which abuts against the side of the prime mover. As a result, the inserting hole can be used in common also as the oil pump removing screwed hole and no extra removing screwed hole is required to be provided.
