MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION
Lubrication Recommendations
Transmission Lubrication
The transmission lubricant level should
be checked every six months or
1000 miles (1600 km),
whichever comes first. Maintain
the oil level at the bottom of the
fill hole threads. Change
transmission oil annually. We
recommend the use of AGL
Synthetic Gearcase Lubricant.
See page 118 for the part numbers
of Polaris products.
