Abstract
A working machine includes: at least one support member connectable to a work attachment to do work by making contact with an object to be contacted; at least one hydraulic cylinder to move the work attachment connected to the at least one support member, a rod-side pressure detector to detect a rod-side hydraulic pressure of hydraulic fluid in communication with a rod-side fluid chamber of the at least one hydraulic cylinder; a bottom-side pressure detector to detect a bottom-side hydraulic pressure of hydraulic fluid in communication with a bottom-side fluid chamber of the at least one hydraulic cylinder; and a controller to calculate a relationship in pressure between the rod-side hydraulic pressure and the bottom-side hydraulic pressure and evaluate, based on the calculated relationship in pressure, a contact state which is a state of contact of the work attachment with the object.
