About the STIHL RMA 253 Cordless Lawnmower (Shell Only)

A cordless lawnmower with a 51 cm (20 inch) deck for larger lawns in noise sensitive areas

The STIHL RMA 253 is a battery-powered push lawnmower from STIHL’s AP system. It is quiet, easy to manoeuvre, and simple to use. It is designed for professional use on larger lawns; the most powerful AP 500 S battery can provide up to 450 m2 coverage. Batteries and chargers are sold separately.

Efficient cut and collection of grass

The lawnmower has a 51 cm (20 inch) cutter deck, whilst the cutting height is simply adjusted using a single lever through 7 preset positions 25-75 mm. Cut grass is collected in the sizeable 55 Litre grass box that features a fill level indicator to signal the operator when it needs emptying; the integrated top handle and flap on the top make it easy to empty.

Featuring a quality sheet steel housing and a powerful air controlled system

Powder-coated sheet steel housing provides robustness for prolonged use and guarantees a long service life. The fan blade generates a strong air flow within the housing which lifts the blades of grass prior to cutting to ensure a clean and even cut every time.

Designed with handy features to make operation a breeze

The smooth-running wheels are equipped with a directional stability profile to keep the lawnmower perfectly on track. Other useful features include a foldable handlebar to aid transport between jobs as well as space-saving storage, and compatibility with STIHL’s Smart Connector that feeds vital details and statistics about the machine to a smart device.

Part of STIHL’s interchangeable professional battery system

STIHL’s professional battery series is fully interchangeable with all other machines in the AP System; the ‘shell only’ does not include any batteries or a charger should you already have these in your arsenal for a cost-effective purchase. Otherwise, you can choose any AP battery and any AL standard or quick charger (STIHL recommend the AP 200 battery).

Battery power has its advantages over petrol machines, the first being battery tools are lighter and therefore easier to transport and manoeuvre; there aren’t any emissions making it more comfortable for the operator as well as keeping the environment clean.
