More than likely there's a bunch of garbage in between the condensor and radiator. The easy way to clean is to remove the two bolts from the radiator brackets and lean the radiator towards the engine. Use a shop vac with a crevice tool, an air hose or a garden hose and clean the debris out.
Make sure the fans are working properly. I haven't watched mine but at least one fan has to come on when the a/c is on.
When the fan(s) runs heat from the engine can't hit the condensor. More than likely what's happening is you have little or no air flow across the condensor and as a result the head pressure is rising to the point where the safety switch kills the compressor feed.

Thanks beav. I understand now. I think it sholdn't be a problem.
