DESCRIPTION
Maximize your planting efficiency with the Martin-Till Weight Transfer System, a premium hydraulic solution designed to eliminate the common pitfalls of heavy center-fill planters. This system focuses on superior weight distribution, shifting the heavy load from the center of the planter to the wings to significantly reduce soil compaction and ground pressure in the tractor's path. By maintaining uniform planting depths and consistent row unit pressure across the entire toolbar, you ensure optimal seed-to-soil contact even in variable field conditions. The high-performance hydraulic control kit responds instantaneously to terrain changes, protecting your yield potential from the start. Highlighting the specifications of American-made durability, this system is a vital investment for growers looking to improve root development and overall crop uniformity.
Key Features
Advanced hydraulic weight distribution allows the operator to shift massive center-frame weight to the wings, effectively eliminating "pinch row" compaction and promoting healthier root systems.
Integrated in-cab control box provides real-time, on-the-go adjustments via a user-friendly harness, ensuring you can adapt to changing soil moisture levels without leaving the tractor seat.
Rapid-response hydraulic valve technology ensures the system reacts instantly to undulating terrain, maintaining a constant downward pressure for consistent seed placement across all rows.
Precision-engineered Made in USA cylinders offer unmatched reliability and long-term durability, specifically designed to withstand the high-cycle demands of modern planting seasons.
Heavy-duty Grade 8 hardware is included in every kit to ensure a secure, fail-safe installation that handles the extreme stresses of high-speed planting and heavy frames.
Easy-to-install bolt-on brackets streamline the setup process, allowing for a professional-grade fit without the need for welding or permanent modifications to your planter frame.
Optimized row unit pressure ensures that every seed is planted at a uniform depth, which is the foundational step for achieving synchronized emergence and maximum corn yields.
Versatile frame mounted opener compatibility allows the system to work seamlessly with 3-inch frame-mounted openers, providing a flexible solution for various tillage and planting styles.
Electronic PWM control version utilizes industry-standard pulse width modulation to provide smooth, incremental pressure adjustments rather than jarring, binary movements that can stress the frame.
Increased wing-row root development has been proven in field studies, as reduced compaction in the wing area allows for lateral root expansion and better nutrient uptake.
High-pressure hydraulic durability is built into the core design, allowing the system to operate safely within high-PSI environments while maintaining precise calibration over thousands of acres.
Wide-ranging planter compatibility supports popular John Deere 1770, 1790, and 1795 models, including both 12 and 16-row configurations, ensuring a perfect fit for your fleet.

I've started using the mulcher I on several parcels of land 10 acres . I have grind down a couple of 14 inch stumps. Caution the mount bracket behind the mulcher motor exhaust gets extremely hot even with gloves on . But the unit so far seems to works very good it's well put together.
The Firminator G3 is s heavy duty quality machine. The discs worked extremely well and planting and culti-packing is very smooth and easy. Working with Dillon at Ripping It Outdoors was a very good experience and seamless transaction.
The week before leaving for my mule deer hunt in Wyoming, I seeded the area surrounding the new runway at Wertheimer Airport in Norman.
This past Tuesday, I returned to finish the job and was pleased to see that the seed I planted just two weeks earlier was already germinating and coming up nicely.
These pictures show the freshly seeded areas alongside those planted two weeks ago. It’s a great comparison and a good example of what proper seedbed preparation and planting can accomplish.
I used my Ferminator G-3, which is one impressive piece of equipment. It prepares the seedbed, plants the seed, smooths the soil, and firms everything up for good seed-to-soil contact—all in one efficient operation.
I’ve owned and operated several no-till drills over the years, but I can say without hesitation that the Ferminator is the most efficient and versatile seeding machine I’ve ever owned.
There’s something pretty satisfying about returning to a job and seeing those first green shoots coming through the ground. That’s when you know your hard work is paying off!
Just got my Buffalo Turbine! Love it. Took a little bit to get used to getting the right angle for the nozzle, but not a problem. Side note, works much better if the frame is level as much as possible.
Love it!

Seems to be in order delivery wasn't able to use lift gate but tractor was able to take pallet off the truck bed. No damage to machine after visual check. won't know how it runs until rain stops.
Staff at RippingitOutdoors was very quick to call and double check the type of backet needed for the unit to ensure the online order matched( to fit my skid steer quick attachment on my l2501 Kubota). Explained the teeth & belt could be ordered through them directly over the phone when/if needed as well as selling other types of custom made brackets for Utv's ect. All around Great customer service and would purchase from again.
After spending way to much money for forest mulching services I discovered this wonderful machine. It's not a giant powerhouse forest mulcher, but it does everything a property owner needs to maintain a forested property. I wish I would have found it sooner.
The Firminator is well built and functions well. I am having some trouble while planting mixed size seeds. Next time out I’ll try setting it so only the smaller seeds drop out the open it up for the larger seeds.
easy buying process and great communication. Mulcher works great, easily clears overgrown brush and even mulched a 5" thick mulberry tree fairly easily. running it off of my old 331 bobcat with no problem powering the drum at all. Only small issue which isn't a big deal is that the supplied hoses are about 16" too short to operate a full range of motion.
Over all built well. I like it is all cast iron and metal and not plastic. Had to modify fertilizer disc mount to fit correctly, nothing major, a little grinding. I modified the center link hitch point to accommodate my John Deere quick hitch. Have yet to plant with it but I’m sure it will work perfect. Love the grease fittings everywhere. Reminds me of the old farm equipment I grew up on, and still use periodically.
My firminator RT was delivered in good condition in ND. I will be using it next week. I have a 45 HP John Deere tractor that is supposed to lift 2000 lb but really struggles to lift this 6 foot firminator RT. I will just have to use in as a two pass operation for now.
I do wish there was a better operating manual for this unit. Maybe that is something you can work on.
I will give you an update once I start using it in a few days.
Great piece of equipment. Performs far better than I expected. One piece of advice - if property is significantly overgrown, consider the tractor attachment first to bring down the over growth and then switch to the UTV attachment to maintain property. No complaints worked perfectly.
Very pleased. Product was better than anticipated and is working well.
I expect the 2000lb feeders to last at least a decade based on my use with cattle.
If feeding wild game would likely last a lifetime with minimal maintenance.
seeds come out way to fast at lowest setting when planting alfalfa literally the only reason I bought it now I can't even use it and I can't return it so I'm stuck with it for the price you pay you would think it would work!
It’s built solid. It handles Field grass hip high pretty well. With the maintaining the field grass after the first cut, the pasture field is starting to look like a lawn. The 84 inch with the best thing to get for 8 acres. It’s best to order belts for back up in the event if the belts were to break. But overall, I like the product quality is good.
When I think of ripping it outdoors something else comes to mind, but I digress. This spreader is awesome. Works like a champ. The hopper is big enough to do my 1 acre lot for my applications. Just load once and go. I would highly recommend this spreader. It saves a ton of time and is a quality product.
