MAINTENANCE

Gearcases

Rear Gearcase

Always check and change the rear gearcase oil at the intervals outlined

in the Periodic Maintenance Chart beginning on page 58.
Refer to the Gearcase Specifications Chart on page 68 for recommended

lubricants, capacities and torque specifications. See page 112 for the

part numbers of Polaris products.
The rear gearcase fill plug is on the driver's side of the rear gearcase.
Oil Check (4X4)
Maintain the oil level 3/4" (19 mm)

below the bottom thread of the fill

plug hole. Use a light colored non-

absorbent measuring instrument

(such as a white cable tie) to mea-

sure the depth.
1. Position the vehicle on a level

surface.

2. Remove the fill plug. Check the

oil level.

3. Add the recommended oil as

needed.

4. Reinstall the fill plug. Torque to

specification.

Oil Check (6X6)
The easiest way to check for

adequate oil in the 6X6 is to

drain and refill the gearcase to

capacity (see page 68). Perform

the oil change as outlined on

page 74.
