Default Eiger oil and fluid

I have an 02 Eiger 400, 4wd, Auto. Bought it used.
The manual is on the way, but not here yet.
My question is?
I found the oil dipstick and the brake fluid is easy enough to check.
What other fluids to I need to check and where are they located?
Thanks.

differential fluid should be checked every 1200 miles and replaced every 2 yrs. as per 2004 eiger manual. should be the same for the 02.

The plugs are on the side of the differentials. It is a metal plug that is removed with a hex key of some sort. You will notice the plug when you look at the unit. They recommend SAE90 hyploid gear oil with a GL-5 rating.
