Default Help with 2004 Dinli 90cc Helix

I am new to ATV's but just picked up a 04 Dinli 90cc Helix for my son. It's a project quad, not running yet, needed a new carb and a few other parts, but it's in great shape and for $100 I couldn't pass it up. I am currently going through everything awaiting a replacement carb. I want to change the transmission oil, but I don't have a manual and can't find anyting online so I have two questions right now.

1. What fluid do I use? (It's an oil injected 2 stroke automatic with Forward/Neutral/Reverse.)

2. How much fluid? (The side of the case has a little glass window to see the fluid, do I just fill so that it's to that level?)

Thanks in advance.

Thank You, I had found that site. It appears to be a Parts Catalog and a service manual, but there is no mention about maintenance such as fluid/capacities that I could see. In your experience, when there is a little window to see the fluid, should that be where the top of the fluid would be. Maybe right in the middle of the circular glass window?

I'd fill oil to center of the glass,crank it up for a couple minutes,let the oil settle and check it again.Then I'd keep it a little above center to be on the safe side. On some Japanese machines there are small lines next to the sight glass indicating oil level to keep it at,but I wouldn't expect such luck on these little ones.
