The STIHL RMA 243 stands out as a battery-powered push-along lawn mower tailored for beginners aiming to maintain small to medium-sized lawns at home. Forming part of the new 2 Series of battery-powered lawn mowers, it offers a lightweight and quiet mowing experience, packed with innovative features that make it the perfect choice for home gardeners.
Constructed with a durable sheet steel deck, this mower boasts a 41 cm cutting width and a single-point height adjustment ranging from 20 to 100 mm. As part of the AK System range of tools, the RMA 243 is powered by an AK battery that is interchangeable with other machines within the range. With two slots in the powerhead for two AK batteries, you can swiftly switch to the second battery when the first one runs out of power. With a full charge using the recommended AK 20 battery, you’ll have the capacity to mow lawns up to 230 m².
Featuring 4 versatile mowing options, the RMA 243 requires no additional tools for operation, though we do recommend consulting the owner’s manual beforehand. Here are the available methods:
- Cut & collect using the grass catcher box.
- Cut & drop by simply removing the grass catcher box.
- Side discharge via the integrated deck flap.
- Mulch using the multi-blade and mulching attachment.
The comfort mono-handlebar provides convenient access to the grass catcher box, simplifying removal and emptying when it reaches capacity. Furthermore, the grass catcher box includes a fill level indicator, ensuring you’re aware of when it requires emptying. Designed with ergonomic considerations, the 52-litre grass catcher box is effortlessly fully openable for quick and easy emptying. The sturdy mono-handlebar is both height-adjustable and foldable, enabling compact storage after use.
