Lubrication Recommendations

Transmission Lubrication

The transmission fill plug (1) is located on the right side of the
machine behind the propshaft shield or footwell.
The transmission lubricant level should be checked every six months or
1000 miles (1600 km), whichever comes first. Transmission oil should
be changed annually. With the 6X6 on a level surface, remove fill plug
(2) and check the lubricant level. Lubricant level is correct when it
reaches the bottom of the filler hole. The correct transmission
lubricant to use is Polaris Premium Synthetic Gearcase Lubricant (PN
2871478).
Transmission Oil Changing Procedure
1. Remove propshaft shield from the right side of the vehicle.
2. Remove fill plug.
3. Remove transmission drain plug located on the bottom left hand side
and drain the oil. Catch and discard used oil properly.
4. Clean and reinstall the drain plug.
5. Add Polaris Premium Synthetic Gearcase Lubricant (PN 2871478 - 12
oz. bottle) until oil reaches the bottom of the filler hole.
6. Check for leaks.
7. Reinstall propshaft shield or footwell and screws removed in step 1.
