It will hydraulic lock. This means that it will appear and feel as if it has siezed up but in fact it probably hasn't. To correct the problem you must drain the excess oil. Start by disconnecting the spark plug wire so the mower can't accidentally start up. Under the mower where the blade is you should find a plug going into the bottom of the motor. Remove that plug and drain the oil. Reinstall the plug and check your oil. fill only to the line on the dipstick. Reinstall the spark plug wire and your mower should start normally.
