Help? Mower will start fine and idle and rev up but when I disengage the break or engage the PTO or move the arms off the side, the motor dies. Any idea what it may be guys. Thanks in advance.
 
There are usually safety switches associated with brakes, control arms, and PTO. The zero turn I use most, you have to take off the brake, then you can move the arms and engage PTO. I imagine you're familiar with any sequence you have to do. Maybe one of the switches is not working reliably. Do you have a volt meter? I would make sure the switches have good connections, and test the function. Give the mower model # and serial so people can look up that particular machine.
 
The brake handle switch on my Rogue is pretty sensitive to position. If I don't have the brake lever all the way down (off) the switch stays active. For all I know there may be some type of adjustment I can do to change the position but I just make sure to push the handle down fully so it isn't worth checking. This would be my first suggestion for you to look into though.
