The STIHL RT 5097 Petrol Ride-On Lawn Mower designed for lawns up to 6,000m². Featuring a 95cm cutting deck, 250-litre grass collector, single-pedal drive system and adjustable comfort seat, it delivers efficient mowing performance with exceptional ease of use.

The STIHL RT 5097 Petrol Ride-On Lawn Mower is an agile and user-friendly lawn tractor designed to make maintaining large domestic lawns both comfortable and efficient. Ideal for properties with lawns up to 6,000m², the RT 5097 combines powerful mowing performance with intuitive controls and excellent manoeuvrability.

Designed with operator comfort in mind, the RT 5097 features a spring-loaded driver’s seat that can be quickly adjusted without tools to suit users of different heights. All major controls are conveniently positioned within easy reach, allowing comfortable operation throughout the mowing session.

The mower is equipped with a 95cm cutting deck and features central cutting height adjustment, enabling quick changes to suit varying grass conditions. An electromagnetic blade clutch allows the mowing deck to be engaged or disengaged easily at the touch of a button, improving convenience and efficiency.

STIHL’s intelligent catching management system helps guide grass from both sides of the cutting deck towards the blades, ensuring effective collection across the full cutting width. The result is a clean, professional finish and excellent grass collection performance.

The single-pedal drive system provides effortless control of speed and direction, allowing operators to switch between forward and reverse with a simple movement. This makes the RT 5097 especially effective for navigating around flower beds, trees, shrubs and garden features.

A large 250-litre grass catcher box reduces interruptions by allowing longer mowing periods between emptying. The catcher can be emptied conveniently from the driver’s seat using the ergonomic curved handle, while the durable polymer construction makes it easy to clean after use.

Combining comfort, manoeuvrability and reliable performance, the STIHL RT 5097 is an excellent solution for homeowners seeking an efficient ride-on mower for maintaining larger gardens and landscaped areas.
