I found a solution myself.

After testing all the safety switches and connections (brake, blade, etc) things still did not work.

I decided to try to do a reset on the switch combination as described in the on line owner's manual, but holding 1 and 3 buttons down for three seconds until blue light came on and stayed on.

I then entered a new code, pushed the blue switch, and after some whirring noises, the green light began to flash, then held steady, and the engine started.
