Details

The STIHL RMA 253 cordless lawn mower is a premium mower; its exceptional performance, coupled with remarkably quiet operation, makes it ideal for residential areas.

With a generous cutting width of 51 cm, the RMA 253 efficiently tackles smaller lawns. This versatile mower has a multi-blade, mulching attachment, and side discharge options. This allows you to choose between collecting clippings or returning them to your lawn as a nutrient-rich mulch.

The ergonomic comfort handlebar features folding, height adjustment capabilities, and easy access to the catcher, ensuring your comfort. The central cut-height adjustment provides seven precise settings from 20 mm to 100 mm, allowing you to customize your lawn's appearance. The large 55-liter grass catcher efficiently gathers clippings and is designed for easy emptying.

The RMA 253 Cordless Lawnmower is part of our AK Cordless System range of tools with interchangeable Batteries - the Battery can be used in other tools in this range including a Blower, Chainsaws, Hedge Trimmers, and Line Trimmers.

A: With the recommended AK 30 battery, this Lawnmower will mow approximately 275m² of lawn with one charge.

Q: How long does it take to charge the AK 30 battery with AL 101?

A: 205 minutes, or to charge it up to 80%, it takes 160 minutes

Q: Are the batteries interchangeable?

A: Yes, all of the tools in the COMPACT Cordless System use the same style of battery. There are three different batteries in the range, which all have different capacities. For the RMA 253, we recommend the higher capacity AK 20 or AK 30 battery, we do not recommend the AK10 as the Lawnmower will not run for very long with this lower capacity battery.

A: Keeping the Lawnmower blades sharp will give your lawn a better finish. You can have your blades sharpened at your nearest STIHL SHOP.

Q: Does the performance of the Battery reduce as it depletes?

A: No there is no gradual drop in performance – the battery runs at full power until it is fully depleted.
