1. A working machine comprising:
a ground engaging structure; a propulsion system for moving the working machine via the ground engaging structure; a body supported on the ground engaging structure; a working arm connected to the body and having a carriage at one end for receiving an attachment; and a control system for selectively oscillating the carriage, wherein the control system comprises: an actuator configured and arranged to selectively oscillate the carriage; an electronic controller configured to control the actuator; and a user input device in communication with the controller; wherein the user input device comprises an oscillation input configured to selectively transmit an oscillation signal to the electronic controller to indicate a desired amplitude and/or frequency of oscillation of the carriage, wherein the oscillation input is variable to alter the oscillation signal transmitted to the electronic controller; and wherein the electronic controller is configured to upon receipt of the oscillation signal selectively activate the actuator to oscillate the carriage at the desired frequency and/or amplitude indicated by the oscillation signal.
