Transmission Oil Check
The transmission lubricant level should be checked
every six months or 1000 miles (1600 km),
whichever comes first. Transmission oil should be
changed annually.
1. Position the ATV on a level surface,
remove the fill plug (1), and check the oil
level.
NOTE:
The transmission fill plug is
located on the right side of the machine,
behind the footwell.
2. Use the gearcase oil fill chart and the
following illustration to determine correct
fluid levels.
NOTE:
When adding oil, use
Polaris Premium Synthetic Gearcase
Lubricant. See page 121 for the part numbers
of Polaris products.
