Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A work vehicle includes an accelerator operation amount generator receiving an actual accelerator operation amount of an accelerator operator to generate a control accelerator operation amount; an engine controller controlling the engine according to the control accelerator operation amount; and a storage storing a table in which an increasing speed for the control accelerator operation amount is set, wherein the accelerator operation amount generator obtains a difference between a converted accelerator operation amount of the accelerator operator converted from a rotating speed of the engine in a current control cycle and a control accelerator operation amount obtained in the last control cycle, determines an increasing speed of the control accelerator operation amount from the difference by referring to the table, and changes the control accelerator operation amount to an actual operation amount in the current control cycle with the determined increasing speed.
