The MA 443 and MA 443 C lawn mowers
are operated with rechargeable batteries.
Only high-quality STIHL lithium-ion
batteries of type "AP" are used.
The batteries (supplied in some cases) are
optimally adapted to the intended purpose,
however, all STIHL lithium-ion batteries
available from specialist dealers (AP 160,

the power of the electric motor to the
relevant capacity.
