Transmission problem / Cat v80e

My forklift won't shift into forward or reverse after it gets warmed up. If I let it set overnight I can shift it the next day for a few minutes before it gets goes into a neutral state.
When it goes into a neutral state you can give it gas in forward or reverse and it just sits. My trans fluid seems to be full according to the dipstick.
When this problem started I could let it sit and after a while continue working for a while. It's continued to get worse until now it doesn't work at all

2bad pull the screen on bottom of trans. If it is clogged with clutch material it won't budge unless it sits for a while and the clog relaxes off the screen. Mine had to be cleaned twice. I have been using it for a long time. I am surprised it still hooks up with all that clutch material missing.no complaints.rubin
