STIHL RM 655 RS One year review.
This is a cool video. It marks my first year on’t RU-vid.
Jason gardener raises some great points in his video • Stihl RM 655 RS REVIEW
The lawn guy shares his points about the drive controls • STIHL RM 655 RS MOWER ...
www.stihl.co.u...
.. The STIHL 6 series lawn mowers are STIHL’s most premium range for gardeners who want the best mowing experience possible. With large area coverage of up to 2500m² on the RM 655 RS, this model is built with durability and comfort in mind for large professional mowing tasks. With a durable metal rear roller with robust drive and well-sealed bearings, there is no compromise between convenience and lawn striping quality. The body design allows for easy access and maintenance of working parts such as drive cables, pulleys and the drive belt. The optimised rear deflector flap works perfectly with the mono-comfort handle, improving access to the grass box and making emptying much easier. STIHL’s best technology comes standard on these mowers. High lift blade for excellent cut and collection, extremely sturdy mono handlebars allow for easy emptying of the grass catcher box, and it’s also easy to adjust to suit different heights, or fold for storage without tools. There’s a simple one drive and blade brake clutch on the RM 655 RS to stop the blade but keep the engine running when emptying the box or moving between mowing areas.The aluminium deck is robust and lightweight and central cutting height adjustment and foldable handle bar make usage and storage much easier.

@nickwf70 3 года назад
Yes it really is a great mower and I like it alot, apart from the roller!!! 😂. ITS TOO SMALL IN DIAMETER which I'm sure is why it slips so easily. On wet grass it slides about all over the place and on bumpy lawns it slips which makes it harder to keep in a straight line or you have to give it a push to keep it going ... Have stihl (viking) designed it like this to improve the durability of the clutch and gearbox I wonder? 🤔 Small roller is easier to turn. Ok so most of the time this isn't a problem but compared with many other mowers I have used the roller is disappointing. Larger diameter with some ribs please STIHL because let's face it, most lawns are not perfectly flat.

I brought one a year ago , we didn’t use it much but it picks up well in wet , the silly plastic handle broke and took ages for dealer to sort out, it seems to have slowed down a bit lately and making a knocking noise and looks like bearings have gone both ends, ours won’t cut on setting one and setting two is a bit high I wouldn’t buy another that’s for sure

Bought mine in Sept 21 for commercial use and it’s been a nightmare on reliability. Stihl basically told me to get lost as it was being repaired under warranty which was no use to me as I couldn’t work without it every time it was repaired and refused to replace it. I’ve had repeated issues with the drive (3 times), handle bolt (2), throttle handle (3) and the front is too exposed and the throttle mechanism at the front has been damaged three times. I’d avoid getting one.

@@jasongardener3425 Home use is different; one does it in his free time and if all the hours that go into lawn care can be re-allocated to other gardening tasks, just imagine the possibilities! As for paying for the lawn to be striped two times per week, even the robots are cheap in comparison. Frankly I haven’t installed the robotic lawn mower yet, considering one has to put that wire along the perimeter; they were all promising a solution to that, but only Husqvarna is close to solving this issue with their EPOS. I guess that if I keep waiting for the wire-free robot, I might need to buy this lawn mower here.
