Greetings.
When I start the machine cold it engages forward and reverse no problem. After the machine has been working for some time and is hot and I switch off for a short period then when I start up again it will not engage either forward or reverse. I if I switch off and wait for say 20 seconds and restart the machine (doing this a few times) it will eventually engage forward and reverse again and continue to operate normally until I switch off again. Once I switch off again the problem may or may not occur again and then the same procedure is needed to restore forward and reverse again. The forward/reverse lever is moving into position correctly but no drive. I have checked the clutch buttons on the gear selector and bucket lever and see nothing wrong there.
Can anyone suggest what may be causing this?
