A dump body for a hauler vehicle, and a hauler vehicle adapted for such a body. The dump body can be equipped to an autonomous, and electric or hybrid, working machine. The working machine includes a dump body and a working machine frame. The dump body includes at least one guide portion having a guide surface facing downwards and being arranged at the load supporting end portion, the guide portion being configured to transfer the load of the dump body, and a second end portion of the working machine frame includes at least one guiding plate arranged to receive the at least one guide portion of the dump body, whereby the guide portion and the at least one guiding plate are arranged such that the dump body is guided towards a centered position on the working machine during a pivotal downward movement towards said working machine frame of the working machine.
