to meet your needs.

Wireless remote operation

In addition to the joystick or control


handle, the control of one or more tur-

a wireless remote operation. Besides
the control of all movements and
controls of up to 4 turrets per vehicle,
the water pressure and jet adjustment
can also be controlled from a distance
of more than 100 m. Parallel to the
turrets, elements such as the light
