Abstract

A construction machine that can easily regulate a set maximum flow rate at a time of replacement of an attachment and that can improve an energy conservation performance is provided. A controller selects a corresponding map in response to an attachment designation signal from among maps each of which sets a relationship between an operation signal per type of the attachment and a flow rate of a hydraulic fluid supplied to an actuator, generates a control signal by causing the selected map to refer to the operation signal, and controls a flow control valve of an attachment flow rate regulation valve device in such a manner that a position of the flow control valve is switched over from a neutral position on the basis of the control signal. An unloading valve that maintains a differential pressure across the flow control valve is disposed in the attachment flow rate regulation valve device.
