Abstract: A support assembly for a guide rail for a cutting tool is described. The support assembly includes a base element with a mechanical interface which is configured for a detachable connection with the guide rail. Further, a support arm having a first end pivotably supported on the base element and a second end configured to support the support assembly on a support surface is provided. The support assembly additionally includes a locking mechanism configured to selectively lock the support arm with respect to the base element in at least two different relative pivotal positions. Furthermore, a guiding assembly for a cutting tool as well as a use of a guiding assembly is presented. Also, a use of a support assembly is described. Moreover, a method for operating a guiding assembly is explained.

Abstract: A connector for coupling a particle outlet of a handheld machine tool to a particle receiving device is described. The connector has a tube-shaped inlet portion extending along an inlet axis and a tube-shaped outlet portion extending along an outlet axis. The tube-shaped outlet portion is for coupling to the particle receiving device. The inlet portion has a body section and an engagement section. The engagement section is resiliently coupled to the body section. The engagement section has an engagement geometry for mating with an engagement counter-geometry on the particle outlet, such that a positive locking effective along a circumferential direction is provided between the engagement geometry and the engagement counter-geometry. Moreover, a lock is coupled to the inlet portion. The lock is for selectively blocking a movement of the engagement section relative to the body section.
