I would say follow the manual and you you will be fine. The oil capacity isn't very much 0.25 liters (slightly more that 8 oz.)

Imo, that is not enough.
Use 8oz's and it should come pretty close to the top of the arrows on the standard side.
Check it after a good run and after it has sat for a while.
Too much oil is just as bad as not enough.

If you have reverse you need to read the dipstick that says "REVERSE". If you don't have a reverse you need to read the dipstick that says "STD". The REVERSE side is indicates a lower on the dipstick. This is according to my service manual.

That's the reading I have done on here, 8oz's regardless if your sled has reverse or not.
Can someone else verify this?
