Why does your craftsman riding mower die when you start the blades or let off the brake?

If your Craftsman riding mower dies when you start the blades or let off the brake, it could be due to a few reasons. A common issue is a faulty safety switch, which prevents the mower from operating under unsafe conditions. Additionally, it could indicate a problem with the battery or electrical system, such as a weak battery or loose connections. Lastly, an overloaded engine due to dull blades or excessive debris might cause the mower to stall when engaging the blades.
