I was doing some front loader work with my B2710 HST in low range the other day and the pressure needed to manipulate the HST pedal increased to the point where it almost felt like something was jammed or stuck between the pedal and the floorboard. In forward, for example, it would move slowly forward then I would push harder and the tractor would jump forward at full speed. It is difficult to describe but I am hoping someone else has experienced something similar. The fluid level is fine maybe a tad high.

That sounds like brakes were on or pushing against something solid like a rock and the tires cannot spin. Pedal on my 2910 becomes hard to push when using high gear.
I didn't have the brake on and I got off and visually inspected all external parts of the HST pedal. It seems there is some connection with heavy use of the loader. I'm digging in a side hill where I'm typically slowing spinning all 4 tires to bite into the hill and at the same time working the loader to loosen rock or soil.
Once I start traveling to where I dump the loader and only using the transmission, it seems the pedal response is better.
