Furthermore, a reserve cylinder 8 is mounted on the check plate 11. This reserve cylinder 8 is internally partitioned into a large diameter side oil chamber 21 and a small diameter side grease chamber 22 by means of a freely slidable piston 13. Also, a selector valve 7 fitted to the side of the reserve cylinder 8 is internally provided with a spool 10 operable on a balance between hydraulic pressure taken out from the large diameter side oil chamber 21 of the reserve cylinder 8 and own travel hydraulic pressure.
