The RMA 443 C is a powerful and manoeuvrable cordless lawn mower, which is ideal for larger areas of lawn.
It has an eco mode that can be switched on so that the speed of the lawn mower automatically adapts to the mowing conditions to preserve the battery life where possible.
The RMA 443 C is so simple to use and, with the innovative mono-comfort handlebar, it is also easy to access and empty the grass catcher box. The sturdy polymer housing is robust but is also lightweight making it easy to move and transport the mower - this is made even easier by the built-in carrying handles.
As with all STIHL lawn mowers, the blades have been designed to create the perfect airflow, which lifts the grass, cuts it neatly and pushes it into the grass catcher box with minimal resistance, so it also makes the most of the battery life.
The RMA 443 C is part of our AP System range of tools and uses AP interchangeable batteries - it is not compatible with the AK batteries in the AK System.
- Area covered with recommended AP 200 battery: Up to 360m²
- Area covered with AP 300 S battery: Up to 540m²
Features
Easy opening grass catcher box
The grass catcher box has a unique design - just clip it open from the back and drop it all straight into a garden waste bin or compost heap.
Flow-optimised blades
All STIHL lawn mowers have a flow-optimised blade to give a precise cut on your grass and push it straight into the catcher box. This gives you a neat finish, but also conserves the battery life.

Tips
#1Cleaning your RMA 443 C
When you have finished using the mower, remove the battery and clean using a damp cloth or soft brush. Always wear gloves and tie back long wear when cleaning or maintaining your mower.
#2Storing your RMA 443 C
Store your RMA 443 C in a clean and dry area away from children at all times. Don't forget you can fold the handle over and put the grass box on top so it takes up less space.
#3Looking after your battery
Don't use a damp or wet battery in your RMA 443 C and avoid using them in extreme temperatures (very hot or very cold). Find out more about looking after your battery on our blog.
#4Using a mulching kit
You can also buy a mulching kit for your RMA 443 C. This means that instead of collecting the grass clippings in the catcher box, you use the mulching kit to cut the clippings finely and drop them back on to the lawn as a natural fertiliser. Find out more about mulching on the STIHL Blog.
#5Leaves on the lawn
Did you know you can use your RMA 443 C to collect and shred leaves on your lawn? Switching off the eco mode means that the blade speed does not drop and so the mower can lift leaves with ease.
#6Check for wildlife
Don’t forget to check your work area for wildlife before starting to use your tool. In particular, you should check for nesting birds before trimming hedges, as well as checking for other small animals such as hedgehogs before trimming long grass.
