L110- engine cutting off

My engine sputtered and cut off after cutting for approx 30 minutes. Initially it sputtered but I was able to keep it running but shortly after it stopped. I can re-start the engine still, but it will cut off again when I try to step on the drive pedal or reverse pedal. I looked on top of the deck, and the belt is still in place as it should be. Any suggestions on this?

From what was offered, sounds like the engine is starving for fuel.

I appreciate the input. Not sure if it is a fuel situation. The engine runs as usual when idling and brake is on. If I take the brake off or push the PTO while idling- the engine cuts off. I am assuming it is a breaker type switch that should be engaged (or not) when I try to put the machine in motion. Any additional thoughts?

Seat + brake + magento
Seat+ PTO + Magneto
These are the two safety circuits that cause the engine to shut down
What is common to both of them ?

The other thing is the mow in reverse

Solved the problem- seat kill switch had popped out of housing. It was fixed the last time it was serviced but the service techs used wads of paper to secure it into cavity. I just pulled it out and taped it up so it would stay on.
