You can use the Polaris Demand Drive Fluid or substitute Type"F" automatic transmission fluid.
Hole should be at the 4 or 8 o'clock position, I usually put the fluid in the upright position & then turn it to the correct position & let the excess run out

thanx have you ever had any problems with the front hubs or 4x4 push button and if you jake the quad off the ground all 4 tires up should the front left tire turn with the back tires when pressing the gas even when in 2wheeldrive.

I thought it was the 3 and 9 I would think 4 and 8 would leak too much fluid out maybe I have been doing it wrong but I have never had a problem

Fluid level is set at 3 or 9. The newer machines with adc require a specific fluid

....Says 4 & 8 o'clock position in my book.
I think all 4 wheels will turn when in two wheel drive but you should easily be able to stop the fronts with your hand...(be careful!)

The fron hub will spin depening on how tight the bearings are in the hub. The centrifical force will slowwly spin the front tires in 2wd but you can stop it with your hands.
