The STIHL RMA 7.0 RV is a professional battery-powered mulching lawn mower, engineered specifically for the demands of commercial landscapers and grounds care specialists. As a key part of the STIHL AP System, it harnesses the power of two AP batteries simultaneously to operate at 72 volts, delivering a mowing performance comparable to STIHL’s own RM 756 professional petrol lawn mowers.
This mower is built for longevity and tough working conditions. It features a rugged aluminium deck with a polymer inner casing, protected by a corrosion-resistant powder coating. High-wear parts, such as the metal scuff strips and polymer lining, are easily replaceable, ensuring a long service life. With a generous 51 cm cutting width and individual wheel cutting height adjustment from 25mm to 100mm, the RMA 7.0 RV offers maximum durability and adaptability across varied and tricky terrains.
The RMA 7.0 RV provides two mowing methods: efficient mulching that returns fine clippings to the soil as a natural fertiliser, or a side-discharge option for managing longer grass. Control is centralised on the mono-comfort handlebar through a built-in electronic interface. This digital HMI displays crucial information like battery charge levels and allows the operator to switch between mowing modes (Eco, standard, auto-boost) and adjust motor speed. The Vario speed drive offers five selectable speed levels, ranging from 0 to 6 km/h, to perfectly match the conditions.
The innovative mono-comfort handlebar not only provides ergonomic operation but also allows unobstructed access to the 80-litre fabric grass catcher box. This sturdy box features a steel frame, polymer base, and tear-resistant fabric for excellent collection. For convenience, the handlebar is height-adjustable and folds for compact storage and transport. The mower comes with a 2-year professional warranty (subject to registration and servicing).
Please note, this is a tool-only model and requires batteries and a charger from the STIHL AP System. The mower must be operated with two batteries. Performance varies depending on the batteries used, as shown below.
| Battery Combination (x2) | Max. Area per Charge |
|---|---|
| AP 300 S | up to 760 m² |
| AP 500 S | up to 910 m² |
For optimal performance, the AP 300 S or AP 500 S batteries are recommended. Using AP 200 S batteries will result in reduced performance. The mower cannot be operated with a single battery or with the AR L backpack battery.

The STIHL RMA 7.0 RV is specifically designed for professional users, such as commercial landscapers, grounds maintenance contractors, and local authorities who require a robust, high-performance cordless mower for daily use on large or challenging terrains.
This mower is sold as a ‘tool only’ unit. It requires two batteries from the STIHL AP System to operate. For optimal performance and coverage, STIHL recommends using two AP 300 S or two AP 500 S batteries. You will also need a compatible AP System charger, such as the AL 301 or AL 500.
The primary functions of the RMA 7.0 RV are mulching and side-discharge. However, the manufacturer’s description mentions an 80-litre fabric grass catcher box and notes that the mono-comfort handlebar is designed for easy access to it, indicating collection is a supported function.
STIHL has engineered the RMA 7.0 RV to deliver performance directly comparable to their professional petrol models, specifically the RM 756. Its dual-battery 72-volt system provides the high power output needed for tough commercial jobs, but without the noise, emissions, and fuel handling of a petrol engine.
The Vario self-drive system allows the operator to precisely adjust the mower’s forward speed from 0 up to a brisk 6 km/h. This variable control is essential for professional use, enabling you to slow down for thick grass or complex areas and speed up on open stretches, matching the pace perfectly to the terrain and job requirements.
