Not sure what year. Bought used no O&M Manual.
You have a safety switch that is bad or not making connection. There is a clutch safety switch and a seat switch. Try to set the parking brake and see if the blades start, if they do then die when removing the brake, it is probably the seat switch.

Try putting a jumper wire on the wire going from the engine to the seat. Take that plug and put a wire from one side to the other. Be careful not to cut your feet off when engaging deck.

SOURCE: Knocking in mower deck or belt clutch when engaging blades, motor bogs / slows down
YOU MAY HAVE A BENT BLADE OR EXESSEIVE BUILD UP UNDER THE DECK
SOURCE: engine chokes & dies when deck PTO engaged...
you need to start with your electric clutch and then backwards to your idler pulleys and deck spindles and bearings.
your electric clutch should almost stop the blades instantly when disengaged ,check the center bolt in the clutch to be sure it is tight also
remove the belt from the electric clutch and energize clutch any noise? sometimes the bearing goes bad in the clutch itself.
check all of your 3 spindles for noise and loose. remove belt and spin by hand and listen for quiet and they should turn free with no binding
check blade tightness
any item the belt goes around needs to be looked at for secure and operable.
