Abstract
A tractor includes a three-point link mechanism to which a work apparatus is to be attached so as to be able to move upward and downward, a hydraulic drive to perform a swing operation to swing the three-point link mechanism, a load receiver to swing in response to a tow load being applied from the work apparatus when the work apparatus performs ground work while being towed by the vehicle body, and a link mechanism to transmit an amount of operation for the swing operation to the hydraulic drive according to an amount of swing of the load receiver. The link mechanism includes, at a most upstream position, an interlocking swing arm to swing in conjunction with the swing of the load receiver about a swing axis that is different from a swing axis of the load receiver, the load receiver includes a first portion to press the interlocking swing arm that includes a second portion contactable with the first portion so to be pressed by the first portion, and a contact position of the first and second portions.
