Starting with the simplest, could be normal, the RPM setting, the hydraulic system (fluid, filter, pump), or the shift-pressure setting. ....

Sounds to me like you may have a problem with your pressure relief valve.

When the tractor is cold, the oil is thick and develops a lot more pressure. If the relief valve spring is getting weak, or has broken, it may be dumping the fluid straight back into the reservoir. After it has idled for that few minutes the friction of forcing itself through the valve has warmed the oil up enough that it starts to act normally again.

Some delay is normal, our Kubota GST's do the same thing in cold weather, even with the lighter oil in them. We use magnetic heaters on the TX cases and it helps a lot.

Best of luck.

After you've ruled out the more obvious things, listen to the Murfmeister. Yannies with the PS have both a main and a secondary relief valve in there. To check and/or adjust you'll need a service manual that gives the pressure specs and a gauge that you attach to the access port. ....
