The RM 253 T from STIHL is a petrol single-speed lawn mower designed for entry-level users looking to cut small to medium-sized lawns at home. Part of a new range of 2 Series petrol lawn mowers, it’s fitted with innovative key features that make this the ideal choice for home gardeners.

This lawn mower is built with a sheet steel deck, a 51 cm cutting width and single point height adjustment that is adjustable between 20 – 100 mm. The EVC 205 engine is easy to start too meaning you can effortlessly get to work. And on a full tank of fuel the RM 253 T can mow lawns up to 1800 m2.

The RM 253 T has 4 different ways of mowing. No additional tools are required but we do recommend you refer to the owner’s manual before working. You can either:

• Cut & collect with the grass catcher box fitted
• Cut & drop by removing the grass catcher box
• Side discharge with the flap that is integrated into the deck
• Mulch with the multi-blade and mulching attachment

The comfort mono-handlebar allows easy access to the grass catcher box, making it easier to remove and empty when it’s full – plus, thanks to the fill level indicator on the grass catcher box you’ll know exactly when to empty the box too! The 55-litre grass catcher box is ergonomically designed and easy to fully open for fast emptying. The sturdy mono-handlebar is height adjustable and foldable for compact storage after use. It also has a 10-year domestic warranty too.
