Petrol powered, and boy is it powerful, the RM 650 is powered by a Kohler XT800 Series engine which supports a 48cm cutting width, designed to make short work of those large landscaping jobs.
With adjustable cutting heights easily controlled via the central cutting height adjuster which is spring-loaded, and an innovative 3-in-1 cutting blade, the 650 really does the job with ease. The 3-in-1 blade gives you options with your grass cuttings, what do you want to do with them? Collect them in the easily accessible 70-litre grass cutting box, cut them and drop them, or mulch them back into the lawn? The choice is yours!
With SmartChoke technology built into the motor, you can rest assured that the RM 650 will start, no matter the weather, hot or cold, this is reliability you can count on. The super-soft grip, the ergonomic handle folds over to save space for storage and is comfortable enough to allow you to cover the full 2000m2 area it’s capable of, in comfort.
Variations of the RM 650 include the RM 650 V & the RM 650 T. Both versions provide extra assistance with lawnmower propulsion, ensuring an easy mow. The RM 650 V features a variable speed drive, allowing you to adjust the speed between 2.6 – 4.6 km/h, finding the speed that suits you best is critical when mowing larger areas whilst remaining comfortable. The control lever for the speed is conveniently located on the handlebar. Meanwhile, the RM 650 T comes with a single-speed drive, ideal for sloped gardens or uphill mowing.

The Stihl 7 Series are a perfect choice for those looking for a reliable and robust piece of groundcare equipment, powered by petrol and powerful enough to tackle even the toughest cutting jobs with ease and in comfort.
Within this range, there are 3 variations, each developed specifically for professional use, and seeing as Britain is wet most of the year, they’ve been designed to work effectively in the rain too! Each mower is powered by the robust and powerful Kawasaki FJ 180 V KAI OHV, which is sure to stand the test of time thanks to the innovative and excellent Japanese engineering. While the large, 3-litre fuel tank is enough to keep your new beast of a piece of groundcare equipment, fed and purring for longer, so you can get the job done!
Low vibration features throughout the range ensure that extended use is comfortable, a great feature when you’re using the lawnmower throughout the day and repeatedly. While the 54cm cutting deck cuts swathes through the grass with ease, thanks to the magnesium construction that is both strong and lightweight. There is even a full-size polymer deck insert that provides excellent impact protection, further increasing the durability of these units. They all also feature the same Blade Brake Clutch technology as we mentioned above, allowing you to move the mower from area to area without the blades running.
The three varying models are as follows, the RM 756 GS, GC and YC. the RM 756 GS features a 3-speed drive with a dual handlebar, the RM 756 GC boasts the same 3-speed drive but with a mono handlebar. And the top of the range, creme de la creme is the RM 8756 YC, which has a hydrostatic drive coupled with a mono handlebar. The solid, mono handlebar that is featured on both the YC and GC units allows the user to easily and conveniently easy the tough fabric, 80-litre grass collection bag. Each of the mowers also features fully adjustable height handles, allowing you to find the height that suits you, further adding to the comfort levels.
