The Firminator G3 is not an ordinary piece of farming equipment; it's a complete 3-in-1 food plot planting system that combines three essential tools into one unit.
Heavy-Duty Disk Blades for Efficient Food Plot Preparation
The Firminator's disk system provides versatility and performance across a range of soil conditions. Adjust the disk angle by removing a pin and sliding the pivoting disk beam to one of several preset positions along an arc. You can choose from straight, 5,10,15, or 20-degree angle settings, allowing you to tailor the aggressiveness of the disk to suit your soil type and planting needs.
Firminator food plots implement feature-heavy, 18-inch notched 9-gauge steel disk blades. A standard blade scraper prevents the buildup of mud and vegetation. The unit also includes an adjustable center-ripper shank that breaks up the strip of soil between the two center disks. The shank is depth-adjustable and can be removed with two bolts. Disk axles are supported by triple-sealed, replaceable bearings and paired with cast-iron spools for added weight and durability.
Accu-Seed System: Precision Seed Distribution for Any Plot
Ranew's food plot implement uses the Accu-Seed System, which allows for accurate planting of all seed sizes from small clovers to larger seeds like corn, soybeans, peas, and sunflowers. To eliminate waste, the seed stops falling when the Firminator stops rolling. The seed box uses an adjustable seed gate that allows for precise distribution. A built-in indicator on the handle displays seed size settings in one-sixteenth-inch increments. To operate, simply select the setting that matches the largest seed in the hopper, and the metering system will automatically dispense the seed at a standard, recommended rate.
Durable Cultipacker for Better Germination and Soil Contact
The cultipacker plays a critical role in food plot establishment. Its heavy, notched cast-iron wheels are designed to eliminate air pockets, break up clods, and level the soil, creating a smooth, firm seedbed ideal for optimal germination. The best way to plant small seeds is on a firm, cultipacked surface, while larger seeds can be pressed into loose soil with a cultipacker for excellent seed-to-soil contact. The Firminator 3-in-1 planting system earned its name from the high-quality seedbed it consistently produces. Every unit also features integrated cultipacker scrapers, which help keep the 16-inch wheels clean and functional, even in less-than-perfect field conditions.
The size of your property will determine which Firminator G3 model you need. Along with 6 and 8-foot options, Ranew's also offers the Firminator G3 ATV Model. This compact version includes all the features of the standard Firminator in a size designed for ATVs and UTVs. Three-inch steel square tubing is used for the frame and seed box, just like the three-point models. It weighs approximately 880 pounds, allowing it to break up and dig into hard ground where other ATV harrows fall short. It also includes a tow bar for a 2-inch ball hitch and retains a Category 1, 3-point hitch for small tractors. Ranew’s Outdoor Equipment recommends a minimum 550cc ATV or UTV for best results.
