RMA 243

 

The RMA 243 from STIHL is a battery-powered push-along lawn mower designed for entry-level users looking to cut small to medium-sized lawns at home. Part of a new range of 2 Series battery-powered lawn mowers, it’s a lightweight and quiet mower that is fitted with innovative key features that make this the ideal choice for home gardeners.

 

This lawn mower is built with a sheet steel deck, has a 41 cm cutting width and single point height adjustment that is adjustable between 20 – 100 mm. The RMA 243 is part of the AK System range of tools and is powered by an AK 20 battery that is interchangeable with other machines across the range. There are two slots in the powerhead for two AK batteries, so when the first runs out of power you can quickly switch to the second. On a full charge with the recommended AK 20 battery you will be able to mow lawns up to 230 m2.

 

The RMA 243 has 4 different ways of mowing. No additional tools are required but we do recommend you refer to the owner’s manual before working. You can:

• Cut & collect with the grass catcher box fitted

 
• Cut & drop by removing the grass catcher box

 
• Side discharge with the flap that is integrated into the deck

 
• Mulch with the multi-blade and mulching attachment

The comfort mono-handlebar allows easy access to the grass catcher box, making it easier to remove and empty when it’s full – plus, thanks to the fill level indicator on the grass catcher box you’ll know exactly when to empty the box too! The 52-litre grass catcher box is ergonomically designed and easy to fully open for fast emptying. The sturdy mono-handlebar is height adjustable and foldable for compact storage after use.

The mono handlebar also has a 10-year domestic warranty too.

Features

Height-adjustable comfort handlebar

COMFORTABLE WORKING AND STORAGE. The comfort handlebar is only mounted on one side of the lawn mower, making it easier for you to remove the grass collection box. As the handlebar is height-adjustable, it enables you to mow your lawn comfortably and ergonomically. You can adjust it to your preferred height without using tools. As the handlebar is also foldable, the lawn mower can be compactly stored and transported.

Sheet steel housing

FOR LONG-LASTING DURABILITY. With its torsion-resistant sheet steel construction, the housing of your lawn mower is highly robust for a long service life.

Central cut-height adjustment

FOR OPTIMUM MOWER RESULTS. You can adjust the cutting height on your lawn mower easily and in several levels. A scale shows the current height. Central cut-height adjustment allows you to optimally adapt your mowing to the conditions of the lawn.

Smooth-running wheels

IMPROVE CONTROL. With robust and durable smooth-running wheels, you can keep track of your lawn mowing easily and effortlessly. Thanks to their traction and directional stability, these smooth-running wheels can be effortlessly manoeuvred to support careful and comfortable lawn maintenance.

Folding grass collection box

EASY EMPTYING. Your lawn mower is equipped with a folding grass collection box to make emptying clippings very straightforward. The fill-level indicator signals the right time for emptying. An airstream ensures dense filling while mowing, so you can make optimum use of the full volume of the box. The slats on the side of the box direct the air towards the ground, which protects you from dirt being swirled up.

Power boost

MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE INCREASE. Thanks to intelligent electronics, STIHL power tools and batteries communicate with each other. If the device and battery are equipped with the POWER BOOST function, the battery always provides the maximum possible power for the respective application. In order to ensure optimum battery life, the device temporarily adjusts the power if it is used too intensively.

Constant power

CONSTANT POWER, REGARDLESS OF BATTERY CHARGE STATUS. With other brands of battery tools, the performance usually decreases during work as the battery discharges. This is not the case with STIHL cordless power tools with CONSTANT POWER. Thanks to the intelligent electronics, your STIHL power tool works with consistently high power.

Flow-optimised blades

ENERGY-EFFICIENT WORKING. Flow-optimised blades mean your lawn mower uses less electricity; as a result, you can use cordless mowers to mow larger areas with the same amount of energy, even without charging. The blades trim the grass with minimal air resistance, making optimal use of the stored energy.

Carry handle

EASY TO TRANSPORT. The practical carry handle ensures that you can carry your power tool very easily.

IPX4 certified

SPLASHWATER PROTECTION. The IPX protection classes define the moisture protection of electrical or electronic devices. The moisture protection test is defined in different stages. IPX4 certifies protection against splashwater from all sides. Battery-powered tools with this certification are therefore designed for daily use, even in rainy conditions.
