Additional Notes

  • The front differential fluid capacity across all Polaris Brutus configurations — the base Brutus, Brutus HD, and Brutus HDpto — is 0.2 liters for the 2013-2014 model years. The Brutus HDpto carries the same 0.2-liter front differential capacity through the 2015-2019 model years as well.
  • A 0.2-liter capacity is a relatively small fill volume, consistent with a compact front differential housing typical of utility side-by-side vehicles rather than a larger axle assembly requiring a full overhaul fill.
  • Under normal use conditions, the front differential fluid change interval for all listed Brutus configurations is 1,000 miles, 12 months, or 100 hours, whichever comes first. All three trigger points apply equally, meaning the interval is met as soon as any one of the three thresholds is reached.
  • An initial service interval is specified separately for all Brutus configurations across both the 2013-2014 and 2015-2019 model year ranges. The initial service front differential fluid change falls at 250 miles, 1 month, or 25 hours.
  • The initial service interval is significantly shorter than the normal interval — one-quarter of the mileage, one-twelfth of the time, and one-quarter of the hours. This reflects standard break-in practice, where new gear surfaces shed fine metallic particles into the fluid during early operation, making an early fluid change advisable.
  • The front differential fluid specifications for the Brutus HDpto 2015-2019 are identical to those of the 2013-2014 Brutus, Brutus HD, and Brutus HDpto, with no change in capacity or service intervals across the full model range covered by the specifications.
