STIHL RT 4097.1 SX Ride-On Lawn Mower – Side Discharge Power for Fast, Efficient Grass Cutting
The STIHL RT 4097.1 SX is a fast, efficient side-discharge ride-on mower designed for those who want to maintain larger lawn areas without needing to collect the grass. With its wide 95 cm cutting deck, powerful 452 cc OHV engine, and robust side discharge system, it's perfect for users who value speed, simplicity, and low-maintenance mowing—especially in areas where grass collection isn’t necessary.
Unlike rear-collection models, the RT 4097.1 SX ejects cuttings to the side, making it ideal for meadow-style lawns, paddocks, or informal areas where nutrient-rich clippings can be left to mulch down. The STIHL EVC 4000 engine ensures reliable performance, while the hydrostatic transmission with single-pedal operation makes driving intuitive and smooth. The spring-loaded cutting deck and 8-step central cutting height adjustment give you full control over your lawn finish.
Comfort is built in with an adjustable seat, ergonomic controls, and a tight 75 cm turning radius for excellent manoeuvrability even in tricky areas.
