Abstract

The invention relates to a system for a hand-held machine tool, particularly a pistol-shaped hand-held machine tool, which includes at least one first auxiliary unit, and a coupling mechanism that is used for coupling the first auxiliary unit and the hand-held machine tool. An example of the invention includes a suction unit as the first auxiliary unit for collecting debris from a hand-held drilling tool. The system also provides for at least one additional auxiliary unit to be coupled to the held-held power tool by the coupling mechanism. An example of the invention includes an illuminating element as an additional auxiliary unit which can be coupled to the tool with the coupling mechanism so as to be interchangeable with the first auxiliary unit.
