Abstract: A motor grader includes a control unit configured to set a current value for driving an electromagnetic proportional control valve based on a set of current value information. The control unit is configured to correct the set current value based on a fan rotation speed detected by a rotation sensor. The set of current value information has a low current value range (A), a middle current value range (B) and a high current value range (C), in each of which the fan rotation speed is increased or reduced in accordance with the current value. An absolute value of an increase or reduction ratio of the fan rotation speed is less in the low current value range (A) and the high current value range (C) than in the middle current value range (B).
