The RMA 239 C is the ideal lawn mower for small to medium-sized lawns.
It is quiet and manoeuvrable so you can navigate your flower beds, patios and garden furniture with ease, and the central cutting-height adjustment makes it simple to cut your grass to the length you want. Our unique mono-handle design is sturdy but has many benefits - it can be easily adjusted to suit your height, it folds over for easy storage in one simple movement and, best of all, it gives you easy access to the grass catcher box when you need to empty it.
The flow-optimised blades maximise the battery life on your RMA 239 C and it is so easy to use too - just pop in the battery, switch it on and get mowing!
- Area covered using recommended AK 20 battery: 250m²
Features
Height-adjustable, mono-handle designThe unique design of the mono-comfort handlebar on the RMA 239 C means that the handle can be simply adjusted to suit your height or folded over completely with one press of the lever. It also gives you clear access to the grass catcher box - there's no need to pass it between the handles, just lift it straight off in one movement.
Carrying handles
A carrying handle has been built into the body of the mower to make it easy for you to transport it.
Innovative grass catcher box
The grass catcher box is made of a sturdy plastic, and is easy to empty through the clam-shell opening - simply hold the box over the bin or compost heap using the handles on both sides and pull it open. The box also has vents on all sides that face downward so you won't get covered in dirt and dust when mowing.
Flow-optimised blades
All STIHL lawn mowers have a flow-optimised blade to lift and neatly cut the grass, without using unnecessary battery power.
Central cutting height adjustment
It's easy to adjust the cutting height of the mower in one quick movement with the spring loaded lever. There are five different heights to choose from between 20 and 70mm.
Polymer housing
The housings of the STIHL battery-powered lawn mowers are made of a high-quality polymer material. This extremely lightweight polymer housing combines high resistance and robustness against forces, heat and UV radiation.
Easy-running wheels
The hard-wearing wheels on the RMA 239 C have traction and tread patterns that are designed to make it easy for you to move the mower around your flower beds, trees and other obstacles in the garden.
Clever design for maximum airflow
The airflow produced by the blades channels the clippings directly into the grass catcher box to make sure it fills right to the top. The grass level indicator on the top of the box then drops down so you know exactly when to empty it.
FAQs

QAre the batteries interchangeable?
Yes, all of the tools in the AK Cordless System use the same style of battery. There are three different batteries in the range, which all have different capacities. For the RMA 239 C, we recommend the AK 20 battery, but you can also use the higher capacity AK 30 battery in this tool. We don't recommend using the AK 10 as the RMA 239 C won't run for as long with this smaller battery and you will need to charge it more often.
