Product information & specifications
STIHL RM 453 V Petrol Lawn Mower – 51cm Vario Drive
The STIHL RM 453 V petrol lawn mower is a high-performance self-propelled mower with Vario wheel drive, designed for homeowners tackling medium-sized to large and challenging gardens. As part of the premium 4 Series range from :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}, it delivers powerful performance, flexible speed control and outstanding durability for demanding lawn care.
The RM 453 V is built around a rugged double-layer polymer deck that is lightweight, rust-proof, UV resistant and petrol resistant. This high-resistance housing provides excellent long-term durability without unnecessary weight. With a wide 51cm (21") cutting width, the mower allows you to cover larger areas efficiently while maintaining excellent control.
Power comes from the reliable STIHL EVC 300 petrol engine, featuring an easy-start system for effortless starting in both cold and warm conditions. The standout feature of this model is the Vario wheel drive, which enables infinitely variable speed adjustment via the handlebar control. This allows you to perfectly match the mowing speed to your walking pace, grass length and terrain—ideal for uneven or sloped gardens. On a full tank of fuel, the RM 453 V can mow lawns of up to 1200 m².
The central single-point cutting height adjustment offers a wide range from 20mm to 100mm, making it easy to adapt to changing grass conditions throughout the season. A clear scale displays the selected height for precise and consistent results.
With its versatile 4-in-1 mowing system, the RM 453 V gives you complete flexibility. You can collect grass clippings, cut and drop, use the integrated side discharge, or mulch using the supplied multi-blade and mulching attachment. Mulching finely shreds the grass and redistributes it evenly into the turf, helping to fertilise your lawn naturally while saving time on disposal.
Comfort and convenience are enhanced by the mono-handlebar design, which provides easy access to the 55-litre grass catcher box. The catcher features a fill-level indicator and folding mechanism for quick, clean emptying. The handlebar is height adjustable, foldable for compact storage, and finished with a super-soft ergonomic grip to absorb vibrations during mowing. The mono-handlebar is also covered by a 10-year domestic warranty.
