Need help to repair my Mountfield SP480 lawnmower?

The petrol mower starts OK, but has started to struggle with cutting the grass, and eventually the engine cuts out. The motor runs OK whilst its lifted up, and there is no resistence to the grass cutting.

I look forward to a response.

Give the air filter a good clean if you haven't already, and check spark plug?
