Cat 910E Loader started to hesitate shifting direction

Have a CAT 910E it is a 1989 wheel loader for my
use around the acreage of my house.
While plowing snow today, right it is April 19 and
plowing snow!, the loader started to (first time I
noticed it), to slowly engage the transmission
when changing forward to reverse, and reverse to
forward; this was after it operated for over one
pushing snow.
I would stop the loader dump the bucket load of
snow and give it fuel to move in reverse and the
transmission would not engage until a few seconds
past. Tried it changing to forward gear and the
same thing happens. This happened several times.
It did not do this before and I have had the
loader for several years now.
Put in the barn and checked the transmission fluid
it is slightly above the full mark with engine at
idel.
Any one have an idea what could be wrong?
 
Try it again tomorrow and compare it cold and as it warms up. Likely a pressure test would tell you a lot.

Don't know where it is on that machine, but most of the CAT powershift type trasnsmissions had a screen on the suction side of the pump. It's usually located close to the bottom of the housing where the line goes into it, or in a housing somewhere in the suction line. Check the filter screen as you will probably find it at least partially clogged.
 
Most all loaders have a transmission disconnect on one brake pedal.. Is it maybe sticking ?? I've seen this on an early 910..
