PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a working machine that is capable of a proper cutting operation because a guiding element, at least a portion of which is located outside of an outer surface of a side portion of a machine body, guides the subject of cutting toward a cutting means.SOLUTION: A mowing machine 1, i.e., a working machine, includes a machine body 2 for connection to a tractor, the machine body 2 having a pair of right and left side plate portions 13. A cutting means 15 for cutting the subject A of cutting while rotating is rotatably provided on the machine body 2. A guiding element 41 for guiding the subject A of cutting toward the cutting means 15 is provided on an outer surface of the right side plate portion 13 of the machine body 2. The guiding element 41 is positioned protrusively outside of the outer surface of the right side plate portion 13 of the machine body 2.COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT【課題】適切な切断作業ができる作業機を提供する。【解決手段】作業機である草刈作業機1は、トラクタに連結する機体2を備え、この機体2は左右1対の側板部13を有する。機体2には、回転しながら被切断物Aを切断する切断手段15を回転可能に設ける。機体2の右側の側板部13の外面には、被切断物Aを切断手段15に向けて誘導する誘導体41を設ける。誘導体41は、機体2の右側の側板部13の外面よりも外側方に突出して位置する。【選択図】図1
