Active Descent Control (ADC) Fluid
Two fluid levels must be maintained on your vehicle, the demand drive
fluid and the ADC fluid. See page 99 for demand drive fluid mainte-
nance.
Check and change the ADC fluid level at the intervals outlined in the
Periodic Maintenance Chart beginning on page 85. Maintain the fluid
level between the minimum and maximum marks on the reservoir. We
recommend the use of Polaris ADC Fluid. See page 143 for the part
numbers of Polaris products.
NOTE: Do not use brake fluid. Brake fluid will damage rubber components in
the hydraulic system.
