PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To facilitate assembly work or maintenance work, etc.SOLUTION: A work device is connected at a rear part of a travelling machine body via a link mechanism 5 so as to be lifted/lowered. The paddy field work machine includes: control means controlling a hydraulic cylinder to operate the work device for driving for lifting/lowering a grounding body 26B located in a center part of the work device in a machine body lateral width direction to be lifted/lowered relative to the work device while following and contacting the ground and an interlock operation member 49 interlocked and connected with the grounding body 26B, extended upward from a connection part to the grounding body 26B and connected with the control means. The interlock operation member 49 is arranged in one outer side of the link mechanism 5 in the machine body lateral width direction.COPYRIGHT: (C)2016,JPO&INPIT【課題】組付け作業やメンテナンス作業等を行い易いものにする。【解決手段】走行機体の後部にリンク機構5を介して昇降自在に作業装置が連結され、作業装置を駆動昇降操作自在な油圧シリンダを制御する制御手段と、作業装置の機体横幅方向中央部に位置して接地追従しながら作業装置に対して相対的に上下動自在な接地体26Bと、接地体26Bに連動連係され且つその接地体26Bに対する連係箇所から上方に延びて制御手段に連係される連動操作部材49とが備えられ、連動操作部材49が、リンク機構5の機体横幅方向一方側外方に備えられている。【選択図】図5
