The STIHL RM 655 VS Petrol Lawnmower is a robust and highly professional machine, meticulously designed for efficiently maintaining very large gardens, extensive lawns, and demanding commercial applications up to 2,500 m². It is powered by a powerful Kohler HD Series™ HD775 OHV engine with ReadyStart technology, ensuring remarkably easy and dependable ignition. Its generous 53 cm cutting width and exceptionally durable heavy-duty aluminium mowing deck provide superior coverage and a precise, long-lasting cut.

A standout feature is the Vario-drive (variable speed) self-propulsion, allowing you to continuously adjust the mowing speed (approximately 2.6 to 4.6 km/h) to perfectly match your walking pace and specific lawn conditions, ensuring maximum comfort and efficiency. The integrated Blade Brake Clutch (BBC) is a professional advantage, allowing you to stop the blade with the engine still running. This means you can empty the large 70-litre grass catcher or clear obstacles without repeatedly restarting the engine, significantly boosting productivity. This versatile lawnmower offers 4-in-1 cutting functionality: you can effortlessly collect clippings, mulch them to nourish your lawn, or utilise the side and rear discharge options. The ergonomic mono-comfort handlebar is height-adjustable, features a super-soft grip, and folds down for compact storage while providing unhindered access to the grass catcher. The central cutting height adjustment is spring-loaded and simple to use, offering seven settings from 25 mm to 85 mm for perfect results every time. Smooth-running wheels and robust construction ensure excellent manoeuvrability and durability. It comes with a 2-year domestic warranty.
