When I`m using the riding mower and put it in reverse with the blades engaged the engine stop. It`s a real pain to disengage the blades and then back up. There are not any kids or pets in the area so everything is clear. How can I correct this problem? Thanks for any advice Herb

It would help to know what mower you have. Mine has a switch position
that bypasses the motor stop, one I used to have had a push button to
keep the blades running and motor on while in reverse.

As others said, there is a switch somewhere the linkage activates when
you put the mower in reverse.
