After starting mower, safety brake released, when forward / reverse pedal is pushed or when trying to engage mower blades the mower stalls !
Check the safety switches start with the one on the pedal
SOURCE: mower dies when i try to engage blade
Hi, what you wrote is exactly what's is suppose to do. what is it about the mower that's not doing?
SOURCE: I have 16 hp Craftsman riding mower with a Kohler engine.
It may think you are in reverse and is killing the motor to keep you from backing up with the blade running. Look for switch that is telling it when you are in reverse, maybe it is stuck with grass or other debris. another possibility is that the blades are jammed and they are stalliing the motor. Mines stalls easily when cold.

Under the seat, there is a operator presence switch, if this switch fails, the mower will shut off when the brake is released, or put in any gear.
SOURCE: Stalls when engage blades in forward, but cuts fine in reverse
Did you try to disengage the safety feature that should shut the tractor off when the blades are engaged and the tractor is placed in reverse? I believe that it is located under the shift leaver
SOURCE: tractor starts, stalls when blade is engaged, or brake released
you have a safety switch malfunctioning or a transistorized relay not working properly. Go to www.partsdirect.com, this is sears website. It should be able to find and illustrated parts list for your mower.
