The STIHL RMA 253 T is a battery-powered self propelled lawn mower specially crafted for beginners seeking to trim small to medium-sized lawns at home. A member of the new line-up of 2 Series battery-powered lawn mowers, it offers a lightweight and quiet mowing experience, equipped with innovative features that render it an excellent choice for home gardeners.
Constructed with a sturdy sheet steel deck, this mower boasts a 51 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 253 operates with an AK battery that is compatible with other machines within the range. With two slots in the powerhead for two AK batteries, you can swiftly transition to the second battery once the first one runs out of power. With a full charge using the recommended AK 30 S battery, you’ll have the capability to mow lawns up to 275 m².
Offering 4 versatile mowing options, the RMA253 requires no additional tools for operation, although 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 through the integrated deck flap.
- Mulch using the multi-blade and mulching attachment.
The comfort mono-handlebar provides easy access to the grass catcher box, facilitating its removal and emptying when full. Additionally, the grass catcher box includes a fill level indicator, ensuring you’re aware of when it requires emptying. Designed with ergonomic considerations, the 55-litre grass catcher box is effortlessly fully openable for quick and easy emptying. The robust mono-handlebar is both height-adjustable and foldable, enabling compact storage after use.
