MAINTENANCE
Transmission Lubrication - Models with Dipstick
Transmission Dipstick
For most 2x4 models, a transmission dipstick is located on the
right side of the machine. On the Sportsman, the dipstick is lo-
cated near the rear brake disc.
The transmission lubricant level should be checked monthly or
1000 miles (1600 km), whichever comes first. Transmission oil
should be changed annually. With the ATV on a level surface, re-
move fill plug dipstick and check the lubricant level. Lubricant
should be kept at the full mark on the dipstick. The correct trans-
mission lubricant to use is Polaris Premium Synthetic Gearcase
Lubricant (PN 2871478).
