RM 253 T Petrol Lawn Mower: 51 cm / 21" single-speed mower for homeowners

The RM 253 T from STIHL is the perfect entry point for homeowners tackling small to medium-sized lawns. Part of the trusted 2 Series range, this single-speed petrol mower combines straightforward operation with innovative features that make lawn care simple and effective.

Solid construction, reliable performance

Built around a durable sheet steel deck, the RM 253 T offers a generous 51 cm cutting width to cover ground efficiently. The single-point height adjustment lets you quickly set your preferred cut between 20–100 mm, while the easy-start EVC 205 engine gets you mowing without fuss. With a full tank, you'll tackle lawns up to 1800 m² – impressive range for a mower in this class.

Four cutting modes, no tools required

Adapt to any mowing task with four versatile options (always consult your owner's manual before switching modes):

• Cut & collect – attach the grass catcher for neat collection
• Cut & drop – remove the catcher to leave clippings on the lawn
• Side discharge – use the integrated deck flap for rapid dispersal
• Mulch – add the multi-blade and mulching attachment for fine nutrient recycling

Designed for comfort and convenience

The ergonomic mono-handlebar provides easy access to the grass catcher box, making removal and emptying straightforward. The built-in fill level indicator takes the guesswork out of knowing when to empty, while the generous 55-litre catcher box opens fully for quick, hassle-free disposal.

Height-adjustable and foldable for compact storage, the robust mono-handlebar is built to last – backed by a 10-year domestic warranty for total confidence.
