The 3.0 WaterBug includes an on-board harvesting camera and a detachable operator viewing screen!
The harvester-mounted camera gives the operator a close-up view of the front of machine while harvesting or cutting, similar to if you were sitting on the machine. It is helpful for following weed lines, rounding corners, or when the machine is facing away from the operator. The camera also features IR night vision capabilities.
The controller screen is 4 inches in length and width with a resolution is 480p.
Attachments
The standard Waterbug comes with 2 long-lasting lead-acid batteries, live camera with remote viewing screen, and a set of two net extensions.
The following add-on options are also available. Contact us for pricing and details.
Sickle Bar
This optional add on is specifically designed to cut lake weeds to a depth of 15-16” with remote control, but can be set to a maximum depth of 24″ manually. The aluminum sickle cutter attachment is easy to remove and can quickly be added back on when cutting rooted weeds.
Skimmer Booms
The optional skimmer boom extensions make removing floating algae as simple as driving forward. The floating booms act as a funnel, feeding surface debris onto the harvesting bed
Net Extensions
Launch and Removal
Waterbug is designed to be operated by a single person.
The Waterbug trailer can easily be hooked up to a garden tractor or ATV/UTV and backed into the water. A handle bar modification is also included so the machine can be wheeled into the water by hand.
Once removed from the water, Waterbug can collapse, making for easy transportation and storage.
