The new cordless weed cutter STIHL RGA 140 noticeably reduces the risk of thrown up stones or grit

With the cordless weed cutter STIHL RGA 140, professionals in municipal and road services, agriculture, horticulture and janitorial services get a new solution. The cordless weed cutter facilitates the removal of weeds and grass and does so without throwing stones. The cutting tool features two blades that rotate in opposite directions. This noticeably reduces the risk of damage from thrown up stones or grit. The KWF-certified machine with double handle is therefore ideal for getting rid of weeds and grass around posts and along guard rails, fences, streets and sidewalks.

The machine also lends itself perfectly to mowing on escape ramps and parking lots. To obtain an excellent cutting performance at optimum energy efficiency, the speed of the powerful EC motor can be adjusted in three steps.

Moreover, the machine operates so silently that hearing protection is unnecessary. Thus, the machine is also suitable for use in noise-sensitive locations. The double handle offers high working comfort during prolonged use. The robust cordless weed cutter lends itself to use on a wide variety of surfaces, such as crushed stone, asphalt and pavement. The easy-to-clean air filter ensures reliable engine cooling and thus a long service life.

The machine is part of the STIHL AP battery system for professional users and was specially designed to meet their requirements. The RGA 140 can also be used in rain and moisture (IPX4). For optimal machine operation, the AP 300 S battery is recommended. It not only provides the energy supply, but also guarantees an excellent balance.

Overview of details:

• Large cutting force and pendulum-free mowing

The cordless weed cutter STIHL RGA 140 features a cutting tool with two blades rotating in opposite directions. In contrast to rotating cutting wires and metal cutting blades, this noticeably reduces the risk of damage from thrown up stones or grit. At the same time, this blade principle guarantees a high cutting force and prevents clippings from blocking the blades. In short, the new RGA 140 is the ideal machine for removing weeds and grass around posts, along guard rails, fences, roads and sidewalks, and on escape ramps and parking lots.

• Powerful and silent

The battery-powered weed cutter is powered by a brushless, electronically controlled electric motor (EC). This operates so silently that the machine is ideally suited for use in noise-sensitive locations, for example, near schools, hospitals and cemeteries or even in residential areas. Moreover, the user does not need to wear hearing protection.

The double handle can be adjusted without tools, which contributes to the high working comfort even during prolonged use. The RGA 140's speed can be adjusted in three steps to suit the work situation. This not only ensures high energy efficiency, but also longer working times per battery charge. The air filter is easy to clean and ensures motor cooling and a long service life with consistently high power.

• Versatile and modular battery system

The RGA 140 gets its energy from a powerful 36 V lithium-ion battery from the AP system. Developed to meet the requirements of professional users, this battery allows the machine to be used in adverse weather conditions, such as rain and moisture, according to the IPX4 standard.

The AP system includes, in addition to the weed cutter, more than 30 machines for the most diverse applications, as well as batteries, backpack batteries and several chargers. The RGA 140 is compatible with all batteries in the system. We recommend the AP 300 S for optimal performance.

• Ready for STIHL connected

The battery-powered weed cutter is already ready for the STIHL Smart Connector 2 A, which connects immediately to the control system when inserted into the housing. This makes it very easy to integrate the RGA 140 into the STIHL connected system. Professionals get a detailed overview of machine data for efficient fleet management with this digital solution. For example, running time, age, scheduled servicing and maintenance history are displayed.
