RM 2 RC
Petrol mulching mower with 46 cm cutting width, OHV engine and robust sheet-steel housing for areas up to 1,500 m².
Product description
With the STIHL RM 2 RC petrol mulching mower, you return valuable nutrients to your lawn. On this model with a mulching blade, the finely chopped grass you produce when mowing falls back into the sward as nutrient-rich fertiliser. With a 46 cm cutting width, the RM 2 RC is ideal for medium-sized lawns. Compared with the basic RM 2 R, the RM 2 RC has a more powerful engine and more robust components, making it slightly heavier. The super-soft grip ensures particularly ergonomic and comfortable handling. Thanks to SmartChoke technology, the engine starts reliably with minimal effort, whether cold or warm.
