The 2020 Lagoon Crawler features an all new Remote Control System, with a built-in screen. The new controls allow users to maintain optimal functionality of the Crawler, as well as manipulate the new and improved GPS Mode.

Proportional ControlsProportional Control

Proportional Control with the Crawler's new Bellypack allows for fine-grained control through feedback mechanisms. With the ability to effectively and accurately control the Crawler, the agitation process becomes safer and consistently reliable.  The more pressure applied on the drive joystick, the faster the Crawler will drive; other functions such as steering and the agitation cannon are also proportional.

123456789More Torque, Smarter Traction

The Hydraulic System on the 2020 Lagoon Crawler has been completely redesigned.  Now with 4000Psi, this system gives insane torque to the wheel drives (18% more torque than 2019 model year, 38% more torque than the 2017 model year). The redesigned Smart Traction Control System prevents wheels from locking by sending more oil to the needed wheel. This allows the Crawler to climb out of steeper pits than previous models.

Crawler GPSIntegrated GPS

User's are able to save up to 8 Fence Posts in the lagoon, creating a boundary that the Crawler will stay in. The Crawler will then randomly bounce around within the boundaries, set by the Fence Posts. The Crawler is also equipped with Speed Control, which automatically adjusts the speed depending on the wind direction; slowing down when moving with the wind and increase the speed against wind resistance.

THE LEADING LAGOON AGITATOR JUST GOT A WHOLE LOT MEANER

The Lagoon Crawler will mix your lagoon or pit in the most efficient way possible. The 2020 Crawler is built tougher, meaner and more powerful. The Lagoon Crawler is the world’s first amphibious remote controlled agitation boat, designed for agitating lagoons.

4' GROUND CLEARANCE

The wheels drop down giving the vehicle roughly 4' of ground clearance. Controlled by remote.

AGITATION BOAT

Drives into Lagoon where it turns into an agitation boat that can climb and agitate through thick lagoons

Lagoon Crawler
TRI PORT HEADER

Tri Port Header Design pumps 12,000 GPM, volumes are used to maneuver the Crawler through the lagoon

NO PRIMING SYSTEM
No priming required. The pump is submerged so it will pump the heaviest solids.

Header Series Agitation on Lagoon Crawler
MIX IN 1/2 THE TIME

The 12" pump reduced the time spent mixing the pit. It breaks through thick crust, and destroys untouchable islands of solids.

FINISH SOONER
Customer feedback claims that the same job takes much less time to complete.
USES LITTLE FUEL

Pumps 12,000 GAL per minute and uses less than 10 GAL an hour of fuel.

SUPERIOR AGITATION PERFORMANCE

SUPERIOR AGITATION PERFORMANCE

The 6″ front nozzle is able to crush though thick crusts including ice!

SUPERIOR AGITATION PERFORMANCE

NO PIT IS TOO THICK

The submerged pump & 4WD system make it impossible to get stuck.

DRIVE OUT WHEN COMPLETE

DRIVE OUT WHEN COMPLETE

The large aggressive tread tires allow you to easily drive out of the lagoon.

Strongest Sealing Solution in the Industry

The MECH-TC sealing system, exclusive to the Nuhn Header Series, utilizes a tungsten carbide mechanical seal to effectively protect the drive line and bearings. Tungsten carbide is extremely hard and wear resistant, which results in extended seal life in the harshest environments. The sealing system has been designed to withstand sand and other abrasive compounds. The MECH-TC system is designed to withstand tremendous load with three bearings, 2 tapered bearings and one needle bearing. The system is encased in an oil bath for ease of maintenance.

PROFITABLE AGITATION

The Lagoon Crawler is the best way to agitate lagoons. A better mix will give a higher concentration of nutrients in the manure and will increase crop yield. The Crawler blasts away sand and solid buildup increasing storage and it eliminates the costly expense of additional cleaning out once the lagoon has been pumped out. If you are a custom hauler, your customers will become repeat customers. The Crawler gives your operation an edge over the competition

COMPLETE WIRELESS CONTROL

All of the machine operation functions are controlled through the remote, 50-hour battery life, Functions: Boat forward/ reverse as well as speed control, boat rotate left/ right, boat shift left/right, drive forward/reverse, steer left/right, axle raise/lower, agitation gun movements, engine start/stop, engine throttle increase/decrease, clutch engage/disengage.
