Effortless Powe: The STIHL RMA 353 is powered by a brushless EC motor that features an intelligent Eco mode, designed to help you get the most out of every charge. When activated, Eco mode automatically adjusts the motor speed to match the power required for the task at hand, saving energy and extending battery life.

The large 75-litre textile catcher box is easy to empty, and its generous size means you won’t need to empty it as often.

A: 80 minutes, or to charge it up to 80%, it takes 55 minutes
Q: Are the batteries interchangeable?
A: Yes, all of the tools in the AP Cordless System use the same style of battery. There are different batteries in the range, which all have different capacities. For the RMA 353, we recommend the higher capacity AP 300 S battery, we do not recommend the AP 100 as the Lawnmower will not run for very long with this lower capacity battery.

Q: How Large is the Catcher?

Q: Does the performance of the Battery reduce as it depletes?
A: No there is no gradual drop in performance – the battery runs at full power until it is fully depleted.

A: If you wish to clean your Battery Lawnmower use a damp cloth or soft brush. For safety reasons tie your hair back and wear gloves.
Q: Where should I store my Lawnmower?
A: In a dry clean place away from where children have access.
