OK, so that jives with what I said. Really hot day, working hard for a long time, something overheated and it quit on you.

That doesn't sound to me like a low charge. Sounds more like overheating. Maybe heat is not being properly dissipated and over time a sensor tripped. Or the high demand caused to much heat build up (due to friction) and a mechanical component sized or a sensor's high-temp limit tripped.

I realize none of this helps you.
