Today I did regular service on my 2014 RTV X900, which included trans hyd filter and also the Suction Filter.
The Owners Manual tells me 1.8 gals of hyd fluid (I used SUDT2) in the transmission….. and Another 2.5 gals in the Main Hyd tank (beneath the passenger seat.)
My question regards some confusion from what I’ve been told about these two systems:
Do they SHARE the fluid..? or No..?
It’s my suspicion the transmission 1.8 gals is unique to the transmission…. and the Main Hyd tank serves the steering and MAY serve SOME added accessories like plows, snow-blowers, bed-lift hyds, etc.
Is this correct…?? or do they actually SHARE the fluid between the transmission and main hyd tank?
What Exactly…does the hyd fluid in the Main Tank beneath the passenger seat do?
