Abstract
A working machine includes: a plurality of hydraulic actuators including a high-load hydraulic actuator and a low-load hydraulic actuator whose hydraulic pressure for actuation thereof is lower than that of the high-load hydraulic actuator; a plurality of direction switching valves each of which switches a direction of a hydraulic fluid for a corresponding one of the hydraulic actuators, the plurality of direction switching valves including a low-load direction switching valve that switches a direction of hydraulic fluid for the low-load hydraulic actuator; and a dummy-load forming unit that forms a dummy load in the low-load direction switching valve to suppress a variation in an actuation speed of the low-load hydraulic actuator between a time when the high-load hydraulic actuator and the low-load hydraulic actuator are operated in combination and a time when the low-load hydraulic actuator is operated singly.
