It would help to know what tractor exactly that you have, there is a F, DT, GST, and HST.

Not sounding to good on your end. Usually when the hydraulic oil warms up and the unit slows down or losses function or power. It's wear and bleeding off internally. You could try to see if it's a weak relief valve for the forward function before condeming the HST.

Did the problem come on suddenly or has it been getting worse over time?

Sudden onset issues usually happen when something breaks.
Gradually increasing issues usually point to part wear.

If your going to get into it and repair anything on the HST get The WSM (aka service manual), it will give you a lot of useful information, like the location of parts and there proper removal and adjustment.

Sorry there is not a good free PDF download available,
try your local dealer or you can get it online.

Get a couple new filters for the transmission and hydraulic system. There is one of each, one on the right side is hydraulic and left side is HST filter. Remove old filters. Install new. Cut old filters open and have a look-see what's in side. If you see lots of brass material, you may want to get ready to spend some money. If clean, then could just be contaminated fluid or a filter plugging, etc. Being an L40, could also be electrical since the HST pedal is electrically controlling the HST.
