Lubrication Recommendations

Transmission Lubrication

The transmission fill plug (1) is
located on the right side of the
vehicle behind the propshaft
shield.
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. With the vehicle on a level
surface, remove the fill plug.
2. View the oil level and add oil
if needed. Oil should be kept
at the bottom of the fill plug thread. NOTE: Use Polaris
Premium Synthetic Gearcase Lubricant in the transmission (see
page 106).
3. Replace the fill plug.

Transmission Oil Change

2. Remove the fill plug.

left-hand side and drain the oil. Catch and discard the used oil
properly.
4. Clean and reinstall the drain plug.
5. Add Polaris Premium Synthetic Gearcase Lubricant (see page 106)
until oil reaches the bottom of the filler hole.
6. Check for leaks.
