The present disclosure relates to a hand-held power tool (1) comprising a rotatable work tool (2) with a center (16) and a circumference (17) and having a direction of rotation (19). The power tool (1) further comprises a blade guard arrangement (8) that is arranged to shield a variable part of the rotatable work tool (2) and comprises a blade guard (12) and a swiveling cover part (11, 11', 11") attached to the blade guard (12). In a first position, the swiveling cover part (11, 11', 11") is positioned such that a first arc (A) of a circle is covered, following the blade guard (12), and running an angular distance along the circumference (17) after the blade guard (12), in the direction of rotation (19). The cover part (11 ) is moveable between the first position and a second position where a cutting operation of the rotatable work tool (2) along the first arc (A) of a circle is allowed. The cover part (11, 11', 11") is biased towards the first position. The present disclosure also relates to blade guard arrangements.
