JCB Self Propelled Petrol Lawnmower?

My 2 yr old JCB Self Propelled Petrol Lawnmower, starts, idles then increases it's rpm until cutting out within a time period of minutes.
local repairers will not entertain the machine apparently due to the engine being of Chinese origin and JCB offered no repairs either. Hopefully someone can offer some assistance otherwise i will have to scrap this relatively new machine.
