Abstract
A loading platform is capable of tilting on a vehicle body. In accordance with a position of an operating lever for operating a hoist cylinder for tilting the loading platform and ON/OFF of a limit change switch operated by an operator, a running speed of the vehicle body is limited. If the loading platform is not seated and the limit change switch is OFF, the running speed is limited to a first speed limit or less which is low speed running. If the loading platform is not seated and the limit change switch is ON, when the operating lever is at a lowering position or a floating position, change of the speed limit to a second speed limit faster than the first speed limit is allowed. When the operating lever is at a raising or holding position, the change of the speed limit from the first speed limit is prohibited.
