STIHL RMA 235 Lawn Mower Notice November 2023

As a responsible manufacturer, STIHL has decided to issue a recall for the potentially affected RMA 235.0 lawn mowers.  

Investigations have shown that the normative requirements for blade braking time (≤ 3 seconds) are not fulfilled on some of the machines. As such the machine’s blade may take longer to come to a complete stop. The cause
was determined to be an incorrect braking resistor. Therefore, there may be an increased risk of injury to the user.

STIHL has decided to issue a recall for the potentially affected machines
which involves checking the blade braking time and replacing the wiring
harness in the affected machines at a dealership.

ISC UltraLink STOP USE NOTICE_November 2023

November 30th 2023

Important Safety Notice: ISC UltraLink 

Safety Notice/Product Recall Following on from our inspection notice issued 17 November 2023, our team has been intensively investigating the potential risk and the root cause of the problem.  Our
investigation identified that the press fixture used to secure the assembly of the SafeLock button moved outside of specification, creating the potential for a faulty press fit of the button, which can lead to
the button turning open and coming apart.

STOP USE

Due to the risk of unintentional
opening of the device, which could result in a life-threatening situation, we are issuing this notice instructing users to stop using their device, if it falls within the range of serial numbers:

LK100A1.2: 170431—177209; or LK101A1.2: 170433—176974

Manufacturing corrective actions have been introduced to repair and ensure that the press fixture remains
within specification; and additional procedures have been introduced to ensure that the SafeLock buttons are secured correctly.  Validation
testing has been successfully completed and production of UltraLinks has resumed, with this new process in place.
