Tranny Fluid Change on ’04 Sportsman 700

Changing tranny fluid on my ’04 Sportsman 700. The manual seems inadequate at best. Attachment shows where I am located that oil should be put in at…nothing like manual shows. I’m concerned because the manual says 13.5 oz fills it to the bottom of the filler plug threads. I have put in probably near 20oz and still it is not up to the bottom of the filler plug hole.

Am I using proper fill hole? What is the real proper measurement? IF I have too much in there do I have to drain it all and start all over?

This should be a simple change…should be…it’s not.

Also I see on here where people say on front and rear to not fill front and rear diffs to fill holes as they say in manual, but then say if you do it is not harmful. What’s the general consensus on that?
