The transmission lubricant level should be checked every six

months or 1000 miles (1600 km), whichever comes first. Transmis-

sion oil should be changed annually. With the ATV on a level sur-

face, remove fill plug (1) and check the lubricant level. Use the il-

lustration and the chart below to determine the correct fluid level.

The correct transmission lubricant to use is Polaris Premium Syn-

thetic Gearcase Lubricant (PN 2871478).
