  • Engine-driven work machine
    Patent number: 7597340
    Abstract: An engine-driven work machine equipped with a moving handle is provided wherein the moving handle (86) is formed from a pair of left and right handle bars (88, 88) having a handle grip (93) at the extremity, and a cross member (89) integrally connecting middle parts of the handle bars (88, 88) to each other, and the two handle bars (88, 88) are mounted in upper parts of left and right side frames (2b, 2b) of a frame (2) so that the two handle bars (88, 88) can pivot between a working position (A) in which the two handle bars (88, 88) protrude from the frame (2) and a storage position (B) in which, with the handle grip (93) facing downward, the handle bars (88, 88) in cooperation with the cross member (89) function as a bumper. When the moving handle is not used, it can be folded compactly, and equipment on the frame can thereby be protected from contact with another object by utilizing the handle.
