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.
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.
Put this on Kubota 900 with winch hookup. This thing is a beast (within reason). I named it ‘Homie”, cause Homie don’t play. It will take care of stuff up to about 2” in diameter. You still have to remember that this is NOT like the ones on a bobcat or larger machinery. It does have its limits. But all in all I am very satisfied with it. Now on to the good part! The staff at Ripping It are outstanding! Especially Kayla in the office. She has gone above and beyond on making sure everything went right, from ordering to questions about installation. This young lady would be of great value at ANY company ! Her knowledge and personality are like over the top. This is my first experience with Ripping It Outdoors and I can only say positive things about them. With all that being said, I do fill out reviews on things I buy, AND I give a honest review. If it’s bad then you will know it. But if it’s good, well I tell the truth ! Again Kayla, from the bottom of my heart, a great big THANK YOU for all your help and just talking to you. I feel like we’ve know each other for years!
TENT is easy to put up , material is tuff as told....only complaint is that i wish the bottom had about 3 to 4 inches overlap towards the inside so i could install a 2 x4 or something to help hold the tent down in high winds we have here in virginia thanks
Hi, my name is Ken. I’ve had a great experience with Ripping It Outdoors. I purchased a Forax Hp40 Mulcher for my mini excavator. Kayla Patterson is who I dealt with from the beginning until I received it at my house. She has been wonderful to work with and looking forward to working with her with any other orders I purchase. Kayla answered any questions I had and kept me updated throughout the whole process, can’t say it enough just a wonderful person to work with!!
These are great feeders if you don’t have any feral hogs but if the hogs tear off the wiring harness from the timer to the feeder motor, you’re disabled. Then, if you ask for help from Outback, they refer you to the dealer but really you’re on your own for parts and repairs.
I have three Outback feeders that work as designed. They’re 13 years old and have always served well but this feeder misses the mark by a very high margin. I’d NEVER buy this product again.
Feeders need to be dependable and this unit is not.
This is my first experience with Ripping It Outdoors. Fortunately I got Dillion as a representative and everything from sales to shipping was spot on..
Thanks Dillion for your help!!
The only thing is when hooking up the actuator on my ATV. The wire is long going to the plug in. What has happened in the past about this. Is their video showing the usage of the control?
