Portable tool with grippable rear handle

A portable tool having a front, a rear, and spaced sides and comprising:

• an elongate frame with a length and a front-to-rear lengthwise axis;
• the portable tool comprising a working unit on the frame and a drive for the working unit,
• the portable tool configured to be held in a starting orientation, wherein the lengthwise axis of the frame extends substantially horizontally, with a user's hands engaging the portable tool at a first region and a second region spaced forwardly of the first region;
• and
• the portable tool having:
• a) a gripping assembly at the second region;
• and b) an engaging structure at the first region and comprising a handle,
• the handle comprising a body with a gripping length that extends along a gripping line and is configured so that a user's fingers on one hand of the user can be wrapped against the gripping length to grasp the gripping length in the one hand,
• the handle connected to the frame and configured so that with the portable tool in the starting orientation and the handle in a first position:
• i) the handle gripping line makes an angle of no more than 15° with a horizontal reference plane containing the lengthwise axis of the elongate frame;
• and ii) a space is formed between the gripping length and the elongate frame to accommodate fingers on the user's one hand with the user's one hand grasping the gripping length,
• wherein the handle is movable relative to the frame and further comprising at least one connector on the frame that cooperates with at least one connector on the handle body to selectively releasably maintain the handle in different positions relative to the frame,
• wherein the one connector on the frame has a plurality of teeth configured to mesh with a plurality of teeth on the one connector on the handle body with the handle in different positions relative to the frame,
• wherein the portable tool has an adjusting state for the handle and an operating state for the handle, the portable tool further having an actuator that is changeable between a released state and a secured state, with the actuator in the released state, the plurality of teeth on the one connector on the frame are not meshed with the plurality of teeth on the one connector on the handle body, thereby allowing the handle to be repositioned relative to the elongate frame and with the actuator in the secured state, the plurality of teeth on the one connector on the frame are meshed with the plurality of teeth on the one connector on the handle body to thereby maintain the handle in any one of a plurality of selectable positions relative to the frame,
• wherein the one connector on the frame is mounted on a bendable support that is on a mounting assembly secured to the frame and with the actuator in the released state the bendable support is in a relaxed state, wherein the plurality of teeth on the one connector on the frame are not meshed with the plurality of teeth on the one connector on the handle body, and with the actuator in the secured state a part of the bendable support is biasably moved to cause the plurality of teeth on the one connector on the frame to be meshed with the plurality of teeth on the one connector on the handle body.
