RM 248 T Petrol Lawn Mower (Self-propelled)

The RM 248 T is the perfect choice for mowing lawns up to 1,200m², with the one-speed drive making it incredibly easy to mow up steep slopes and inclines.

The ReadyStart technology is another great feature too, as it makes the STIHL EVC 200 engine simple to start even when it's cold.

The high-lift blade is also cleverly designed to give you the neatest possible finish on your lawn by creating a strong air current around the mower's deck. This airflow lifts the grass upright, then cuts it and efficiently carries it into the 55 litre grass catcher box.

This mower has a 46 cm cutting width and it features foldable handlebars so it can be compactly stored in the shed or garage. The spring-loaded central cutting-height adjustment means you can adjust the height of the cut from 25 to 75 mm in a flash.

All of these useful features to combine to give you a great petrol-powered lawn mower for your garden.

• Ideal for lawns up to 1,200m²
