Abstract
A work vehicle includes a manual operation member swingable about a first axis and a potentiometer including a detection arm swingable about a second axis parallel to the first axis and having a free end connected to the manual operation member at a connection portion. The potentiometer is configured to detect the position of the manual operation member in response to the detection arm swinging about the second axis as a result of the manual operation member swinging about the first axis. The second distance from the second axis to the connection portion is smaller than the first distance from the first axis to the connection portion.
