Is it open station? I've seen many have ice buildup under the seat preventing safety switching from completing its circuit.

I have had this happen to me. When it gets real cold the seat is rock hard and the switch thinks the seat is empty. I have to sit on it for awhile to warm it up some then it starts.

The L4200 is not a hydro machine, only thing I can think of would be the pto safety or the machine is in gear. I don't believe it has a seat safety, but could be wrong on that, mine didn't.
Whenever you use the glow plugs, always cycle them a few times in cold weather, 3 to 4 is always good, before starting.
Having said that, it does sound like a battery issue to me, you may have 12 volts but that could drop when trying to start it. Check all your battery connections also.
