STIHL launch new 7 series lawnmowers

An extension to the AP System, the new lawn mowers are equivalent in performance to the well-respected 7 series petrol models.

With a 48cm cutting width, the RMA 750 V is the smallest of the three new models. The RMA 756 V has a larger 54cm cutting width for faster working, while the RMA 7 RV is a dedicated mulching mower with no collection bag and a cutting width of 51cm.

The 7 series mowers are the first to feature in STIHL’s exciting new Double AP Platform. Drawing power from two AP batteries, the mower utilises a 72 V motor to significantly increase the power output of the machine. This results in a mower capable of cutting large areas of overgrown grass, with no compromise in collection quality.

The mono-comfort handlebar is standard across all new models and is designed to improve access to the collection bag. The construction of the handlebar is extremely sturdy thanks to the aluminium console and steel upper section, ensuring reliable use in tough working conditions. It’s also height adjustable and neatly folds over for compact transport and storage too.

All models benefit from variable speed transmission, adjustable in five steps from 0 – 6 km/h. The gearbox is protected by a sturdy cover, preventing damage and premature wear, and the soft start feature prevents the lawn mower from jolting forward, for a more comfortable experience.

For maximum durability, the models feature a powder coated aluminium deck with an abrasion resistant inner casing made from polymer, which is easy and inexpensive to replace.

Three mowing modes are available to the operator, depending on the terrain being cut. Eco-mode automatically reduces the RPM when under light load to maximise battery working time. Standard mode can be used for day-to-day work, and Auto-Boost can be used to overcome particularly challenges patches of dense grass and vegetation.

The power setting and drive speed can easily be adjusted thanks to the intuitive controls and electronic display. Other parameters such as the battery charge level and connectivity status can also be checked at a glance. With STIHL Connected built into the lawnmower as standard, it’s never been easier to monitor the working time and maintenance plan of your STIHL tool.
