Abstract
A second frame is turnably connected to a first frame. A steering cylinder is connected to the second frame and the first frame. The steering cylinder causes the second frame to turn with respect to the first frame. A hydraulic pump supplies hydraulic fluid to the steering cylinder. An engine drives the hydraulic pump. A steering operating member is operable by an operator. A steering operation sensor outputs a steering command signal corresponding to an operation of the steering operating member. A controller controls a flow rate of the hydraulic fluid supplied from the hydraulic pump to the steering cylinder by controlling a rotation speed of the engine in accordance with the steering command signal.
