[9] System (1) for intervening in the operation of at least one hand-held garden, forestry, construction and / or soil cultivation tool (2), in particular for carrying out a method according to one of the preceding claims, - wherein the garden, forestry, construction and / or soil cultivation tool (2) comprises a processing tool system (3), a motor drive system (4) and a user-operated control element (5) for controlling the motor drive system (4) by a user, and - wherein the system (1) for moving the processing tool system (3) with the motor drive system (4) during user-controlled operation of the motor drive system (4) with the control element (5) is configured from a release state (FZ) to a lock state (SZ) triggered by a lock signal (SI) from a remote control (6), wherein the remote control (6) is configured separately from the garden, forestry, construction and / or soil cultivation tool (2), - wherein an actuation (BT) of the control element (5), in particular an operating signal (Bl) based on the actuation (BT) of the control element (5), and the blocking signal (SI) for influencing the same function (FU), in particular a speed (n), of the machining tool system (3), in particular the motor drive system (4), are provided, wherein the blocking signal (SI) or a signal based on the blocking signal has priority over the actuation (BT), in particular the operating signal (BI), - wherein the remote control (6) has a user-operated release element (9) for triggering the blocking signal (SI), - in particular wherein the system (1) comprises the gardening, forestry, construction and / or soil cultivation tool (2) and / or the remote control (6). [10] Hand-held gardening, forestry, construction and / or soil cultivation tool (2) for a system (1) according to the preceding claim.
