Featuring 36-volt lithium-ion battery technology and quality Stihl engineering, this lawn mower is ideal for homeowners looking for lightweight, no-mess, no-hassle mowing for small- to medium-sized properties. "At only 44 pounds, this lightweight powerhouse can cut up to a quarter of an acre on one charge and lets homeowners spend less time mowing their lawns, and more time enjoying them," said Brian Manke, product manager at Stihl Inc. "The RMA 410 C has no fuel costs or engine maintenance. And with its instant starting, lightweight design and adjustable folding handlebar, there's a lot to love." The RMA 410 C has a brushless, commercial-grade, 900-watt electric motor that provides 50 percent more power than its predecessor and uses either the Stihl AP 180 or Stihl AP 300 batteries. The blade and fan wheel work together to generate a strong current that lifts grass up for a cleaner and more precise cut, improving lawn health. This strong air current also provides the necessary force to quickly and efficiently deliver clippings to the 14.5-gallon grass catcher. The RMA 410 C has a 16.1-inch cutting deck (1.6 inches wider than the previous model); single-action adjustable cutting height in 6 settings from 1 to 3 inches; and a single European-style handlebar that folds for easy transport and hanging storage.
