A handheld driving apparatus is provided for mowing or cutting an object. The driving apparatus comprises: a container, an action unit and a controller. The container is configured to extend from a rear side where a user is located toward a front side where the object is located. An action unit is provided on the front side of the container and configured to drive in such a manner that a mechanical action for mowing or cutting the object can be applied to the object. A controller is configured to execute a program so as to: in a driving step, drive the action unit by controlling a drive output of the action unit to a target value, in a monitoring step, monitor a state or a behavior of the drive output with respect to the target value during the control in the driving step, and in an adjusting step, adjust the target value based on the state or the behavior during the monitoring.

A grass cutting head includes a spool for winding a grass cutting line, a head housing for accommodating the spool, a first guiding structure disposed at least partically in the head housing, and a second guiding structure formed on the spool. The first guiding structure guides the grass cutting line through the head housing when threading the grass cutting line. The second guiding structure guides the grass cutting line to move and be wound around the spool by relative motion created between the spool and the head housing. The head housing includes a first housing and a second housing. The first guiding structure is disposed at least partially in the first housing. The spool is disposed between the first housing and the second housing. The first housing or the second housing is provided with an outer threading hole for allowing the grass cutting line to pass in or out.

An arrangement of a housing and a guide tube is provided wherein one end of the guide tube is held in the housing. The position of the guide tube is adjustable relative to the housing in the direction of the longitudinal center axis of the guide tube. A rotation stop stops swiveling of the guide tube relative to the housing and includes a guide part. The guide part is mounted in one of the guide tube and housing. A longitudinal wall runs in the direction of the axis on the other one of the guide tube and housing. The longitudinal wall interacts with the guide part during swiveling of the guide tube about its axis. The guide part is tiltable relative to the guide tube about a tilt axis. The tilt axis runs along the guide tube and at a distance (a, b) from the axis of the guide tube.
