In a working machine, a traveling pump is driven by a prime mover to rotate a traveling motor by fluid therefrom. The traveling motor has a rotation speed shiftable between a lower first speed and a higher second speed. A traveling change-over valve is shiftable between a first state where the rotation speed of the traveling motor is set to the first speed and a second state where the rotation speed of the traveling motor is set to the second speed. A controller performs a shock-mitigation for reducing a rotation speed of the prime mover when the traveling change-over valve is shifted from the second state to the first state. The controller determines a reduction amount of rotation speed of the prime mover reduced by the shock mitigation based on a difference between a target rotation speed of the prime mover and an actual rotation speed of the prime mover.
