Stihl RM 448 T Petrol Lawn Mower

The RM 448 T from STIHL is a petrol single-speed lawn mower designed for users looking to cut medium-sized to large lawns at home. Part of a new range of 4 Series petrol lawn mowers, it’s fitted with innovative key features that make this the ideal choice for gardeners at home.

This lawn mower is built with a rugged polymer deck that is lightweight, rust proof and double layered for additional stability. It’s UV and petrol resistant too! The RM 448 T has a 46 cm cutting width and single point height adjustment that is adjustable between 20 – 100 mm. The EVC 200 C engine is easy to start too meaning you can effortlessly get to work. And on a full tank of fuel the RM 448 T can mow lawns up to 1200 m2.

The RM 448 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 52-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.

FOLDING GRASS COLLECTION BOX

The innovative grass catcher box is made of plastic and features a folding mechanism that makes it particularly easy to open and empty. The current of air produced during mowing blows the clippings into the grass catcher box and ensures its optimum filling. Special vanes in the box channel the air towards the ground, and so protect the user and lawn mower alike from dust and dirt that has been thrown up. The level indicator signals the correct time for emptying. The airflow generated by the blade raises the level indicator. When the basket is full, the airflow stops. If the airflow is too low, the level indicator returns to its idle state and this is an indication to empty the catcher box. Optimal airflow is required in order for the level indicator to function fully. External influences such as wet, dense or tall grass, a low cutting height, contamination, etc. may affect the airflow and the performance of the level indicator.

SMOOTH-RUNNING WHEELS

The easy-running wheels of our cordless lawn mowers are extremely robust and hard-wearing. They have been equipped with a traction pattern and directional stability tread pattern for effortless manoeuvring and perfect line holding during mowing.

EASY START ENGINE

Thanks to the SmartChoke technology, the engine of the STIHL lawn scarifiers starts at any temperature and with little effort.

MULCHING FUNCTION

The mulching function saves you having to dispose of cuttings and lets you fertilise your lawn naturally. The mulching blades shred the cut grass into small particles which are then automatically distributed evenly over the turf.

POLYMER HOUSING

The highly resilient and robust polymer housing is petrol-resistant and protects the engine block against UV radiation. The high-quality plastic is also exceptionally light.

QUICK-FIX QUICK-RELEASE TENSIONER

FOR SIMPLE ASSEMBLY OR FOLDING UP. With the Quick-Fix quick-release tensioner, you can conveniently fold away the bar of your lawn mower without the need for tools, or fold it open when preparing the lawn mower for work.

SUPER-SOFT HANDLE

FOR COMFORTABLE LAWN MOWING. The ergonomic super-soft handle with its pleasant feel ensures that your arms are protected when mowing the lawn, as any vibrations are absorbed.

HIGHLIFT BLADE

The highlift blade gives a precise finish to the lawn and ensures optimal filling of the grass catcher box. The blade creates a strong air current in the housing, which makes the grass stand upright before cutting and efficiently carries the clippings into the catcher box using an integrated and powerful air flow system.

CENTRAL CUT-HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT FOR LAWN MOWERS

You can adjust the cutting height on your lawn mower easily and in several levels. A scale shows the current height. Central cut-height adjustment allows you to optimally adapt your mowing to the conditions of the lawn.

WHEEL DRIVE

EFFORTLESS LAWN MOWING. The wheel drive makes mowing easier, especially on inclines and larger green areas, so you progress faster and with less effort.
