Abstract: In a chain saw, the tension of a saw chain attached around the outer edge of a guiding bar can be adjusted appropriately by adjusting the force transmitted to a connecting unit during operation of a hand guard. Thus, the saw chain 6 can be easily strained at great tension without use of a strong coil spring.

Abstract: A pair of suction-side scavenging ports introduces a working gas containing fuel into a combustion chamber, and the working gases are caused to collide with each other to thereby form a working gas layer in a state of two vortexes rotating in opposite directions to each other, and a pair of exhaust-side scavenging ports introduces a non-working gas having a lower fuel content rate than the working gas into the combustion chamber, and the non-working gases are caused to collide with each other to thereby form a non-working gas layer in a state of one vortex.
