How can i fix my lawn mower powered by a Briggs & Stratton Engine?

I have a ride on lawn mower with a pull cord starter powered by a Briggs & Stratton Intek Pro 60 OHV engine. Whilst it starts without problem and drives O.K. when you engage the cutting blade the power peeters out and it stalls engine - can you help?

You have a safety switch problem for when you engage the blades..........I have a craftsman ridin mower and I had the same problem......my switch was near the steering gears under hood
