One of the lightest- weight battery-powered lawn mowers currently on the market, the RMA 370 provides clean operation and is approximately 4 times quieter as compared to equivalent gasoline-powered lawn mowers, making it an ideal tool for homeowners with small yards or in noise-restricted areas. Easy and convenient, the RMA 370 starts instantly with just a push of a button and pull of the switch lever, while the 14.5-inch cutting deck makes it highly maneuverable in tight spaces and easily folds for simple transport and storage. Stihl lithium-ion battery technology allows for up to 3,200 square feet of mowing on a single charge. Users of this mower will appreciate a single- action, central cutting height adjustment with 5 height settings for a clean and precise cut. The easy-to-empty grass catcher holds up to 10.5 gallons of clippings — and the built-in indicator lets users know when it's time to empty; or use the optional mulching attachment to put natural nutrients back into the lawn. The RMA 370 boasts a brushless, commercial-grade, 600-watt electric motor, requiring virtually no maintenance and delivering low operating cost. Being gasoline free, there's less mess, and the need to store and pour fuel is eliminated, as well as service issues resulting from fuel additives. Stihl Inc.
