Product information & specifications
The agile STIHL RT 5097 ride-on mower will mow lawns up to 6000 m². With its high degree of driving comfort and the clearly arranged controls, this ride-on mower offers well-thought-out technology for effortless working. You can adjust the comfortably spring-loaded seat of this lawn tractor precisely to your body height without the use of tools.
Thanks to the simple cutting height adjustment and the electromagnetic blade clutch for activating and deactivating the mowing deck, you achieve high mowing performance and a top-quality finish. The catching management system on both sides of the mowing deck gathers the grass across the entire cutting width and guides it towards the cutting blades. The comfortable single pedal drive allows you to manoeuvre the mower precisely, giving you full control, perfect for lawns with flower beds and shrubs.
You can change the driving direction of the lawn tractor from forward to reverse gear with a single action. Thanks to the practical curve shaped handle, the 250-litre grass catcher box can be emptied effortlessly from the driver’s seat. And, the polymer grass catcher box is very easy to clean.

Product Info
Product Info
Manoeuvre quickly, and easily switch between forward and reverse gear using the hand lever – the STIHL-specific single-pedal drive enables comfortable and agile movement. The pressure-sensitive pedal enables precise control between standstill and maximum speed. The separate brake pedal allows the power tool to be stopped immediately at any time.
The electromagnetic blade clutch enables you to conveniently switch the blades of your ride-on mower on and off from the driver’s seat. This means you can react flexibly, for example by raising the cutting deck when driving over rocky surfaces, to protect the blades. When driving back onto the lawn to be mowed, move the cutting deck down again, and switch the blades back on at the push of a button.
Thanks to the grass guidance system, you can cut edges more precisely with your ride-on mower and therefore minimise the effort required for manual re-cutting. The grass guidance system on both sides of the mower optimally catches grass blades over the entire cutting width and feeds them to the mower blades.
Adjust the optimal seating position of your ride-on mower without tools: the spring-mounted and height-adjustable seat is comfortable, practical and can be adjusted to almost any height.
Empty the grass collection box of your ride-on lawn mower conveniently from the driver’s seat. Once you have released the ergonomic sabre handle from the locking position, you can fully unload the clippings with minimal effort. The excavator bucket shape of the grass collection box ensures optimum filling and effective emptying. The plastic collection box is easy to clean.
The low step-on access allows you to easily assume and leave the sitting position on the mower. At the same time, the step-through design provides plenty of legroom.
The robust frame construction gives your ride-on mower stability and makes it comfortable to drive. You also benefit from the compact design when working with attachments such as the snow plough set.
Turf tyres reduce the chance of tracks being left by the ride-on mower thanks to their rounded tyre shoulders. This allows you to treat your lawn more gently.
The central cut-height adjustment of your ride-on mower makes it possible for you to maintain an ideal lawn height on your green area, depending on the terrain. And it’s easy to use: next to the seat is the lever via which you can adjust the cutting height in several levels. A scale indicates the current level in each case.
