Electric work vehicle

An electric work vehicle comprising:

• a battery in a machine body;
• an inverter to convert DC power that is output from the battery to AC power;
• a motor drivable by the AC power converted by the inverter;
• a rotational speed detector to obtain rotational speed information indicative of a rotational speed of the motor;
• a travel device drivable by the motor;
• an operator to change a required rotational speed required for the motor;
• and
• a controller configured or programmed to control a current flowing through the motor by operating the inverter in accordance with the rotational speed information and the required rotational speed;
• wherein
• when the rotational speed of the motor has become equal to or lower than an idling rotational speed that is lower than the required rotational speed due to an increase in a load applied to the motor, the controller is configured or programmed to stop driving the motor irrespective of the required rotational speed.

• when driving of the motor is stopped irrespective of the required rotational speed, the controller is configured or programmed to enter a restricted state where operating of the inverter is restricted;
• and
• the restricted state is canceled in response to cancel instruction information being input.

• and
• a notifier to output a notification indicative of an increase in the load applied to the motor when the load applied to the motor has increased and the rotational speed of the motor has become a first rotational speed that is lower than the required rotational speed;
• wherein
• when a load applied to the motor is higher than a load set in advance, the controller is configured or programmed to stop driving the motor irrespective of the required rotational speed in at least one of:
• a case where a predetermined period of time has elapsed from when the notification is output by the notifier;
• and
• a case where the rotational speed of the motor has become a second rotational speed that is lower than the first rotational speed after the notification is output by the notifier.
