LT1024 Hydrostat Question

[Scott_H]

My new LT1024 has a what I think is a very jerky transmission when starting in both forward and reverse. It is very noticeable at all throttle speeds. When pressing down on the pedel slowly the transmission will suddenly kick in, instead of smoothly moving forward or back.
Is it just me or has anyone else had this problem.
