Rear Gearcase Oil

Always check and change the rear
gearcase oil at the intervals outlined
in the Periodic Maintenance Chart
beginning on page 72. Maintain the
fluid level at the bottom of the fill
hole threads. The oil capacity is 5
oz. (150 ml). Do not overfill.

The fill plug is located on the rear of
the gearcase. The drain plug is
located on the bottom of the gear-
case.

We recommend the use of Polaris ATV Angle Drive Fluid (or GL5 80-
90 weight gear lube). See page 126 for the part numbers of Polaris prod-
ucts.
