Abstract
A boom cylinder circuit is provided with a boom control valve for controlling supply and discharge of hydraulic oil to and from a boom cylinder, and a merge switching valve operable to be switched between a supply position at which hydraulic oil is suppliable from a first hydraulic pump to the boom control valve, and a blocking position at which a flow of hydraulic oil is blocked. A controller switches the merge switching valve to the blocking position when a combined operation of a boom lowering operation and an arm pushing operation is detected by pilot pressure sensors, and switches the merge switching valve to the supply position when only one of the boom lowering operation and the arm pushing operation is detected.
