Colder temps = thicker oil. Thicker oil = harder to flow through hose and fitting orifices.

A low battery would slow it down

Weather Istn really cold here, but in the winter time my trim slows down with a perfectly charged battery. At day light its slow when the temps warm up and the motor has been run for a few minutes it speeds up. Other than that check Voltage, maybe grease the slide plate a little make things easier.
