Abstract
A working machine includes: an operator's seat; and at least one pedal to be operated by being stepped on with a foot, or with feet. The at least one pedal is disposed ahead of the operator's seat. The at least one pedal includes a pedal body extending in a predetermined direction, a pedal shaft having an axis intersecting the predetermined direction and supporting the pedal body in such a way as to allow pivotal motion of the pedal body around the axis, and a tread surface provided on an upper surface of the pedal body and being a surface on which an operator places the foot. The tread surface is sloped such that a height from the pedal body decreases gradually from a portion closer to a big toe of the foot of the operator placed thereon toward a portion closer to a little toe.
