  • Our take on the STIHL RT 5097 Z Petrol Ride-on Lawn Mower

    The STIHL RT 5097 Z is a petrol ride-on mower built for large lawns. A twin-cylinder STIHL EVC 700 engine drives a 95 cm two-blade deck, and the hydrostatic single-pedal drive with direct steering makes manoeuvring easy. It collects clippings in a rear catcher emptied from the seat, and the sprung seat and central cutting-height adjustment keep long sessions comfortable. Against rival ride-ons it stands out for its grass guide system and simple controls rather than for a huge deck or mulching flexibility.

    About the STIHL RT 5097 Z Petrol Ride-on Lawn Mower

    The STIHL RT 5097 Z is a petrol ride-on lawn mower for larger lawns. It is powered by a twin-cylinder STIHL EVC 700 engine. A 2-blade system with angled blades cuts a 95 cm width.

    The seat is sprung and adjustable to all heights. The forward/reverse drive lever is at the steering wheel. The central cutting height adjustment, the blade clutch and the lever for emptying the grass catcher box are also within easy reach. Single-pedal operation and direct steering are used for driving, maneuvering and mowing.

    The Grass Guide System on both sides of the mowing deck catches grass blades at the deck edge and guides them toward the cutting blades. Some light assembly may be required for the grass and collection boxes.

    Questions and answers

    Is the STIHL RT 5097 Z good for a large lawn?
    Yes. Its 95 cm deck and twin-cylinder engine are aimed at extensive lawns, so wide areas are cut in fewer passes than with a smaller ride-on.
    Does it mulch or only collect?
    It is set up to collect clippings in the rear catcher, which empties from the driver's seat. No mulching function is listed.
    How is the cutting height adjusted?
    Centrally, with one lever, so all four wheels change height together without leaving the seat.
    How does it drive?
    A single pedal controls forward and reverse through the hydrostatic transmission, and steering is direct, so it handles like a small car.
    What does the warranty cover?
    STIHL offers a 5-year extended warranty, subject to registering the mower and having it serviced annually.
    Is assembly needed?
    Some light assembly of the grass and collection boxes may be required before first use.
    Where is the STIHL RT 5097 Z Petrol Ride-on Lawn Mower cheapest?
    At DTW TOOLS, for $4,318.73, as of our latest check.
