The Firminator G-3 ATV Model takes all the great features of Ranew’s Outdoor Equipment’s full-size, 3-point implement and right-sizes it for ATV’s and UTV’s.
The ATV G-3 Model features six (6) 16-inch ground turning disks at six-inch spacing. Built on a frame of rugged 3-inch steel square tubing, it weighs 860 pounds, making it heavy enough to break up and dig into the hard ground that other ATV harrows would bounce across the surface of, yet it’s light enough to be pulled by a minimum of 500 cc 4 wheel drive ATV or UTV. The Firminator is leaned more heavily onto its disk assembly by shortening the top link adjustment, providing a deeper cut. A mid-range setting will give varying degrees of disk depth while allowing the cultipacker to maintain good ground contact and break apart clods while leveling and firming the soil.
The seedbox is constructed of steel, just like the full-size three-point models, and features the same precision Accurate Seeding System. You can adjust the metering openings in one-sixteenth-inch graduations until you find the proper selections for the largest seed in the hopper. As you move forward, the seed is dropped into a specially designed baffle that thoroughly distributes the seed right in front of the culti-packer. Because the system is ground-driven, the seed is metered out relative to the speed you travel, and when the Firminator stops rolling, the seed stops falling. This allows you to save time, reduce seed waste and handle vastly different seed sizes with one compact unit.
As soon as the seed hits the ground, it is rolled over by the 34-inch, true agricultural-grade cast iron cultipacker. By lengthening the top link, disks can be carried up off the ground allowing the culti-packer to roll on the soil with additional frame weight being transferred to it. This promotes optimal soil compaction and enhances seed-to-soil contact for better germination rates and protection from wind deflection, so you get better growth with less waste.
The ATV Model comes with a tow bar sized for a 2″ ball but also retains the 3-point hitch if you want to use it on a small tractor.
Whether you’re working on the back lawn or the farthest reaches of the back 40 to create food plots, filter strips, pastures, lawns, or other conservation plantings, the Firminator G-3 ATV model offers an affordable and practical alternative for those who may not need a full-sized all-in-one machine.
