Electric hand-held power tool with ball-type latching clutch

An electric hand-held power tool comprising:

• a function setting tube actuatable via a manual function selector switch to bring about various operating modes;
• a guide tube equipped with a tool fitting and a main latching depression and an auxiliary depression different from the main latching depression;
• and
• a ball latching clutch for transmitting a rotary movement from the function setting tube to the guide tube, wherein the ball latching clutch has a radial aperture formed in the function setting tube, a coupling ball being mounted in the radial aperture and intended to engage in the main latching depression, and a spring-loaded cone ring, the coupling ball being deflectable in a radial direction against an actuating force of the spring-loaded cone ring,
• the auxiliary depression having an opening angle larger than an opening angle of the main latching depression;
• wherein the auxiliary depression is longer than the main latching depression in an axial direction.
