STIHL Petrol Lawn Mower RM 655 RS

Want that classic striped finish on a big lawn, without a workout? The STIHL RM 655 RS gives you the power and control to mow large areas neatly, then roll the grass flat for crisp stripes in one pass.

Its robust petrol engine, 53 cm cutting width and 1‑speed wheel drive help you keep a steady pace, while the rear stainless steel roller leaves a clean, straight pattern behind.

Where it shines

• Large home lawns up to 2,500 m² where speed and finish matter
• Stripes on formal lawns thanks to the rear roller
• Stop-to-empty convenience using the blade brake clutch
• Regular collection with a roomy 70 L foldable catcher

Why this mower works so well

• Rear roller finish: levels the grass for sharp stripes
• Self-propelled: 1-speed drive eases longer runs
• BBC safety: empty the box without stopping the engine
• Easy handling: height-adjustable mono handle and soft grip

In daily use

The mono-comfort handle makes the 70 L box quick to remove, and folds for compact storage. Central height adjustment sets your cut between 20–80 mm. Aluminium housing keeps weight reasonable and stands up to hard use.

Advice from gardenmachineshop.com

For the straightest stripes, overlap each pass slightly and always finish with a final pass in the same direction as the garden’s main view.
