Abstract
An earth working machine (10) includes a machine body (13) having a machine frame (12) and a drive configuration (46), rotationally drivable relative to the machine frame (12), and to which configuration a working apparatus (32) embodied for earth working is releasably connected in torque-transferring fashion, in an operating position, for rotation together around a drive axis (A), such that when the connection is released, the working apparatus (32) is removable from the operating position in an axial direction relative to the drive configuration (46) for deinstallation from the drive configuration (46) and, for installation on the drive configuration (46), is conveyable into the operating position in an axial direction relative to the drive configuration (46), an actuator (65) being provided which is embodied to move the working apparatus (32) out of the operating position when the connection is released.
