I have a Greenwork 40 volt electric mower. I start it up correctly (first push down the start button, and as it is pushed down, then pull back on the starter lever. Suddenly, it shuts off now after 1 or 2 seconds. This occurs repeatedly and the mower is not operational. The two batteries are fully charged. Any suggestions?
