When throttle lever (34) is pulled with the rotation lock member (40) of the engine-powered tool (1) in a state in which rotation of rear handle (30) is permitted, the electrode terminal (482) provided on the rotation lock member (40) and the electrode terminal (344) provided on throttle lever (34) contact each other. As a result of this contact, the two output terminals of the engine generator are short-circuited, the supply of electric power to the ignition device from the engine generator is stopped and the supply of electric power from the ignition device to sparkplug in the engine is stopped. Through this, operation of the blade (10) is prevented when rotating rear handle (30).
