Abstract
This clutch control device includes an engine (13), a transmission (21), a clutch device (26) configured to connect and disconnect motive power transmission between the engine (13) and the transmission (21), a clutch actuator (50) configured to drive the clutch device (26) and change a clutch capacity, a clutch operating element (4b) configured to enable the clutch device (26) to be manually operated, and a control unit (60) configured to calculate a target value (Pt) of a control parameter (Ps) of the clutch capacity in accordance with an amount of operation on the clutch operating element (4b). When the clutch device (26) is operated on a connection side according to an operation on the clutch operating element (4b), the control unit (60) is configured to set the target value (Pt) to a quick connection target value (Pmax) obtained by making a change to the connection side of the clutch device (26) with respect to an operation correspondence target value (Pv) according to the amount of operation on the clutch operating element (4b) if a speed of the operation on the clutch operating element (4b) is higher than or equal to a predetermined specified speed (Sp1).
