RMA 443 VC Cordless Lawn Mower (Self-propelled)

The RMA 443 VC is a powerful cordless lawn mower with vario speed drive, so you can adjust the speed of the mower from 0 – 4.5 kilometres per hour using the lever on the handle. This means that you can speed up when mowing larger expanses of lawn, or slow down when manoeuvring around flower beds or obstacles. The speed of the mower is also independent from the speed of the blade so it always has a consistent blade speed and a precise cut.

It's simple to use too with a height adjustable handlebar that can be adjusted to suit your height, and an eco mode that adapts the power and speed of the machine to perfectly suit the mowing conditions, meaning that you can make the most of your battery life.

The mono-comfort handlebar and easy opening grass catcher box make emptying the grass clippings a breeze too - just unclip the back of the box to empty the clippings in one quick movement.

The RMA 443 VC is part of our AP System of cordless tools and uses interchangeable AP batteries. It is not compatible with the AK System of battery-powered tools.

• Area covered with recommended AP 200 battery: Up to 420m²

Features

Vario speed drive

The vario speed drive means that the speed of the mower can be adjusted to suit the job in hand. Simply increase the speed when mowing large, flat areas or decrease it when mowing smaller areas or around obstacles.

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.
