The dipstick in the round cover below the seat is for the transmission/hydraulics/differential. All area connected, sharing the same oil. Lots of opinions what oil to use. Originally 90 weight mineral oil was recommended. That works fine in warm weather, but when it's cold the hydraulics go into slow motion.
