Abstract
An agricultural machine includes a vehicle body including a front wheel and a rear wheel, an obstacle detector to detect an obstacle, and a position changer to change a position of the obstacle detector. The position changer moves the obstacle detector between a detection position that is a predetermined position to detect an obstacle and an evacuation position to evacuate from the detection position toward the vehicle body side. The position changer moves the obstacle detector to various detection positions allowing detection of the obstacle.
