RME 443 Electric Lawn Mower

The RME 443 is a powerful electric lawn mower ideal for lawns up to 600m².

With a 41cm cutting deck and a generous 55-litre easy opening grass catcher box, this mower is easy to use and easy to adjust to suit you, with a spring-loaded central cutting height adjustment and QuickFix clamps so the handlebar can be folded over in seconds.

The highlift blade gives you a precise finish on your lawn by creating a strong air current, which makes the grass stand upright before cutting, and then efficiently sweeps the grass clippings into the box.

Features

Highlift blade

The highlift blade delivers a precise finish on your lawn and helps make sure the grass box is filled right to the brim, by creating a strong air current around the blade and into the grass catcher box.

Innovative grass catcher box

The plastic grass catcher box is designed to open like a clam shell – simply unclip it and hold the box over the bin or compost heap using the handles on both sides to pull it open. The box also has downward-facing vents on all sides to direct any dust or grass towards the ground when you’re mowing.

Smooth running wheels

The wheels on the RME 443 are extremely hard-wearing and have a traction pattern that makes it easy to hold a perfectly straight line when mowing.

Integrated cable strain relief

The built-in strain relief stops the cable from pulling when mowing and helps it to stay securely connected to your extension lead.

Central cutting-height adjustment

It’s easy to adjust the cutting height of the mower in one easy movement with the spring loaded lever. There are five different heights to choose from between 25 and 75mm.

Carrying handle

A carrying handle has been built into the body of the mower to make it easy to transport.

 Foldable handlebar

The handlebar is foldable for easy storage.

QuickFix clamps

The QuickFix clamps on the handlebar can be used to effortlessly fasten or release the handlebar of your RME 443. The lawn mower can be folded away or made ready for action in a flash.

Tips

#1Cleaning your RME 443

When you have finished using the mower, unplug it and clean using a damp cloth or soft brush. Always wear gloves and tie back long wear when cleaning or maintaining your mower.

#2Storing your RME 443

Store your RME 443 in a clean and dry area away from children at all times. Don’t forget you can fold the handle over and put the grass box on top so it takes up less space.

#3Using a mulching kit

You can also buy a mulching kit for your RME 443. This means that instead of collecting the grass clippings in the catcher box, you use the mulching kit to cut the clippings finely and drop them back on to the lawn as a natural fertiliser. Find out more about mulching on the STIHL Blog. We don’t sell mulching kits online, but you can buy one from your nearest STIHL Approved Dealer.

#4Check for wildlife

Don’t forget to check your work area for wildlife before starting to use your tool. In particular, you should check for nesting birds before trimming hedges, as well as checking for other small animals such as hedgehogs before trimming long grass.
