John Deer Mower Won't Stay Running

I have a John Deere 1500 series lawn mower. I can get it to start but as soon as I start the blades it cuts off. Does anyone know why? I have already checked to see if there is something caught in the blades.

My husbands guess is to check to make sure the belts are on the pulleys...ot , as the previous person said, the PTO switch.

There are a lot of safety switches. For example when my John Deere is running and I get off the seat the mower automatically stops. I would check to make sure all the saftey connections are connected.

My husband's guess is the PTO switch has a short in it. You may need to replace the switch.
