An attachment of a work machine includes first and second attachment bodies connectable to each other quickly and easily. The first attachment body includes first side plates including first projecting portions formed with notches, and the second attachment body includes second side plates including second projecting portions and a fitting pin inserted through the second projecting portions. The interval between the first side plates is larger than the interval between the second side plates. The first and second attachment bodies are interconnected while the first projecting portions are disposed outside the second projecting portions, and the parts of the fitting pin protruding outward beyond the second projecting portions are fitted with the notches.

Attachment for work machine

A work attachment is capable of performing work at a high place while restricting the driving force required to lift the work attachment from its fallen posture in a folded state. The work attachment includes a main boom, a first insert boom and a second insert boom to be selectively used, an intermediate boom, an arm, and a distal working device. The intermediate boom has bendable first and second joints. The second insert boom has a fixed shape. The first insert boom is bent to project upward at a middle joint in the fallen posture, thereby making the center of gravity of the work attachment closer to a boom rotation center axis.
