Lubrication Recommendations

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.
