Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To decide a maintenance period of an oil filter and the like appropriately by providing a dust sensor whose output value varies according to a deposit amount of wear metal powder on an oil filter part in a machine utilizing lubricant oil of a gear-driven speed-change gear as working oil of its hydraulic actuator. SOLUTION: A riding rice-transplanter equipped with a seedling-planting apparatus capable of up-and-down stroking on the back of a running body utilizes lubricant oil of a gear-driven speed-change gear 40 as working oil for a lifting cylinder 3. Wherein the lubricant oil of the gear-driven speed-change gear 40 is absorbed as the working oil of the lifting cylinder 3 and force-fed to solenoid valve 28 by a hydraulic pump 41 whose suction side is provided with oil filters 42A, 42B. The oil filter 42B is provided with a dust sensor S4 comprising a magnetic resistance element and the like so that an output value varies according to a deposit amount of wear metal powder depositing on the oil filter 42B. When the output value from the dust sensor S4 by a controlling device 21 surpasses a specified threshold value, an alarm device 38C is operated.
