MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION
Transmission Oil (600/700)
The transmission oil level should be checked every six months or 1000
miles (1600 km), whichever comes first. Transmission oil should be
changed annually. We recommend the use of Polaris Premium
Synthetic Gearcase Lubricant. See page 121 for the part numbers of
Polaris products.
On the Sportsman 600 and 700, the transmission oil fill plug (1) is
located on the right side of the ATV behind the footwell.
Oil Check
1. To access the fill plug, remove
the four screws on the footwell
and gently pull outward to
remove the footwell.
2. Remove the fill plug and check
the oil level. The oil should be
maintained 1 5/8” from the top
of the fill plug hole.
Oil Change
