New mower with 4.5 hours on it. It suddenly shut off while mowing after about 30 minutes. Restarted the mower and all was well until I tried to engage the PTO. Blades are clean. Checked fuses. Gas tanks full. Looking for any ideas as to what could have gone wrong on a brand new mower.

Sounds like an issue with the operator presence switch, but with it being new, I’d probably leave it to the dealer under warranty unless it’s extremely simple to fix.
