what will make a john deere mower die when blade is engaged?

I have john deere riding mower that when the blade is engaged the motor chockes down then dies. I've checked the blades, they all spin freely, seat saftey switch appears to be working, runs fine untill blade is engaged

The power take off switch is defective

There are other safety switches for you to check - on the actual lever that engages the blades, for example.
