Abstract

The work vehicle includes: a clutch device including a forward-travel clutch and a backward-travel clutch configured to cause, when being in an engagement state, the work vehicle to travel in a forward travel direction and a backward travel direction; a forward-backward travel instruction device configured to instruct the work vehicle to travel in the forward travel direction or the backward travel direction; a clutch state detection device configured to detect whether the forward-travel clutch and the backward-travel clutch are each in the engagement state; and a torque restriction section configured to restrict a maximum absorbing torque of the hydraulic pump to be low when a restriction condition holds, the restriction condition including a condition that a traveling direction of the work vehicle, which corresponds to an engagement state of the clutch device, and a traveling direction of the work vehicle, which is instructed by the forward-backward travel instruction device are opposite to each other.
