[0017] According to one embodiment, the first latching contour and the second latching contour are designed at least in sections to be asymmetrical or symmetrical.
[0018] A suitable latching contour can thus be provided in a simple manner.
[0019] Preferably, the latching element has at least one guide element for guidance in a guide rail.
[0020] Thus, a safe and secure guidance of the latching element can be achieved.

Figure 4 The hook section 322 of the operating element 220 is shown, wherein the rotation axis 260 is preferably formed by a screw 460 . The screw head associated with the screw 460 prevents a displacement of the hook section 322 .
[0052] Figure 5 Shows the Figures 1 to 4 The operating element 220 of the depth adjustment device 150 has an operating section 222 and a hook section 322. A U-shaped section 510 is arranged between the operating section 222 and the hook section 322 along the longitudinal direction 501 of the operating element 220.

[0055] The first locking contour 252 is preferably designed asymmetrically and preferably has a sawtooth profile. In this case, a self-locking effect can be produced by the relatively steep angle of the profile, thereby preventing an undesired adjustment of the depth adjustment device 150 by exerting a force on the protective cap 230. Alternatively, the first locking contour 252 can also be designed symmetrically.
[0056] As shown, the first latching contour 252 is divided into two latching sections 622, 624.

The right latching section 622 shown has an exemplary latching element 623, whose tip 627 is shown pointing downward. The left latching section 624 shown has an exemplary latching element 625, whose tip 629 is shown pointing upward. Therefore, the latching element 623 and the latching element 625 are preferably arranged opposite or opposite to each other.
[0057] Preferably, the brake element 250 has at least one guide element 631, 632 for Figures 2 to 4 The guide rail 240 is guided.

Figure 2 and Figure 3 The second braking profile 244 is rotated.
[0059] Figure 7 Shows 1 to Figure 4 The locking element 250 of the depth adjustment device 150. Figure 7 The preferably curved support surface 610 of the latching element 250 is shown. In addition, Figure 7 The recess 710 formed on the cylindrical base body 605 of the latching element 250 is shown. Preferably, the recess 710 is formed in the radial direction 608 .
[0060] Figure 8 Shows Figures 1 to 4 1 and 15 , and shows an enlarged detail of a guide rail 240 of a depth adjustment device 150 and a second latching contour 244. The second latching contour 244 is preferably integrated into the guide rail 240. Here, the second latching contour 244 can be produced by forging. In addition, the second latching contour 244 can be produced during production, for example, if the guide rail 240 is produced as a casting, in particular a die casting. Alternatively, the second latching contour 244 is also produced as a separate component and is fastened to the guide rail 240 by a suitable connection. Preferably, the suitable connection is configured as a screw connection or is produced by ultrasonic welding.
[0061] Similar to the latching element 250, the guide rail 240 or the second latching profile 244 is also divided into two latching sections 811, 812. Here, the latching sections 811, 812 are arranged on the sides of the recess 243. The right latching section 811 shown has an exemplary latching element 813, whose tip 827 is shown to the bottom shown. The left latching section 812 shown has an exemplary latching element 815, whose tip 829 is shown to the top shown. Therefore, the latching element 813 and the latching element 815 are preferably arranged oppositely or relative to each other. In addition, the second latching profile 244 is preferably asymmetrically configured and preferably has a sawtooth profile. Alternatively, the second latching profile 244 can also be symmetrically configured.

In addition, the guide rail 240 is arranged on the holding section 314 of the protective cover 230 via a pin 242. The latching element 250 is loaded toward the guide rail 240 by the spring force of the spring element 340, which is indicated by the arrow 901. In addition, the guide rail 240 is supported by the pin. Here, the pin exerts a force, which is indicated by the arrow 902. In addition, Fig. 9 The support of the hook section 322 on the screw head 460 of the rotation axis 260 is shown.
[0064] Fig.10 Shows Figures 1 to 4 and Fig. 9 The depth adjustment device 150, in Figure 2 298 in the direction of the arrow 298, in the unlocked position 100, in which the first and second latching contours 252, 244 do not form the latching connection 290. Fig.10 , the operating element 220 is actuated or acted upon in the direction of the arrow 1001, so that the latching element 250 is released from the guide rail 240 against the spring force of the spring element 340. Thus, the first and second latching contours 252, 244 are spaced apart from each other. Fig. 9 The latching connection 290 is thereby released and the cutting depth is adjusted.
[0065] Fig.11 Along Figure 2 The view looking in the direction of arrow 297 shows Fig.10 The depth adjustment device 150.
